Hello,  

It seems you are encountering a "Bad Request" error when trying to use the concordance search in Trados Studio 2024. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:  

**Step 1:** Verify the Server Address  

Ensure that the server address for your translation memory (TM) is correct. If you are using Trados Business Manager, check that the connection protocols have been updated from HTTP to HTTPS, as this change may affect connectivity.  

**Step 2:** Upgrade Your Translation Memory  

Check if the TM you are using needs to be upgraded. Look for any indicators (like an orange triangle) next to the TM symbol in Trados Studio. If necessary, follow the instructions in the article on how to upgrade a Studio translation memory from an older version to a newer one.  

**Step 3:** Clear Cache and Restart  

Sometimes, clearing the cache can help resolve connectivity issues. Close Trados Studio, navigate to the following directory:  

`C:\Users\%username%\App Data\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16`  

Rename or delete the file `Language Cloud Machine Translation.bin`, then restart Trados Studio and log back into Language Cloud.  

**Step 4:** Check for Character Limits  

Ensure that your TM does not contain translation units (TUs) with more than 5000 characters in the target. You can check this by going to Resources -> Translation Memories -> Select your TM -> Launch TM Maintenance and applying the appropriate filters.  

**Step 5:** Monitor for Server Issues  

Since you mentioned that this issue was not present a month ago, it may be worth checking if there are any ongoing server issues with the Language Cloud platform. Sometimes, intermittent errors can occur due to isolated causes.  

If you continue to experience issues after trying these steps, please consider logging a case for further assistance.
