Set translation mode
POST
/api/v1/set_translation_modeFeatures
Set the translation workflow mode for a workspace: 'auto' (Docsbook AI), 'manual' (drafts via API), or 'external' (forward to webhook).
Price — $0.00001 per call (twice what serving it costs us), charged to the workspace balance, the same as over MCP.
Also reachable by name at POST /api/v1/tools/set_translation_mode.
Input2
Your API key, sent as
Authorization: Bearer dbk_YOUR_API_KEY.Sent from your browser straight to the API — never to Docsbook, never stored.Translation workflow mode One of:
auto, manual, external.Webhook URL (required for 'external' mode, empty string clears)
Output3

200 with ok: false: the call was made and billed, and that refusal is its answer.The tool's own JSON answer, already parsed — not a string to parse a second time.
