# Azure AI Document Translation SDK for Python

Client library for Azure AI Translator document translation service for batch document translation with format preservation.

## Installation

```bash
pip install azure-ai-translation-document
```

## Environment Variables

```bash
AZURE_DOCUMENT_TRANSLATION_ENDPOINT=https://<resource>.cognitiveservices.azure.com
AZURE_DOCUMENT_TRANSLATION_KEY=<your-api-key>  # If using API key

# Storage for source and target documents
AZURE_SOURCE_CONTAINER_URL=https://<storage>.blob.core.windows.net/<container>?<sas>
AZURE_TARGET_CONTAINER_URL=https://<storage>.blob.core.windows.net/<container>?<sas>
```

## Authentication

### API Key

```python
import os
from azure.ai.translation.document import DocumentTranslationClient
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential

endpoint = os.environ["AZURE_DOCUMENT_TRANSLATION_ENDPOINT"]
key = os.environ["AZURE_DOCUMENT_TRANSLATION_KEY"]

client = DocumentTranslationClient(endpoint, AzureKeyCredential(key))
```

### Entra ID (Recommended)

```python
from azure.ai.translation.document import DocumentTranslationClient
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential

client = DocumentTranslationClient(
    endpoint=os.environ["AZURE_DOCUMENT_TRANSLATION_ENDPOINT"],
    credential=DefaultAzureCredential()
)
```

## Disclosure and cost boundary

Translation sends documents to Azure and writes output to the selected containers. Confirm authorized document subset, destination, region, retention and budget. Keep SAS URLs out of logs, use short-lived least-privilege access and handle each document’s failure separately; overall job completion does not imply all documents succeeded. SDK/single-document methods and language/format support are version-dependent: inspect current package docs before running fragments.

## Basic Document Translation

```python
from azure.ai.translation.document import DocumentTranslationInput, TranslationTarget

source_url = os.environ["AZURE_SOURCE_CONTAINER_URL"]
target_url = os.environ["AZURE_TARGET_CONTAINER_URL"]

# Start translation job
poller = client.begin_translation(
    inputs=[
        DocumentTranslationInput(
            source_url=source_url,
            targets=[
                TranslationTarget(
                    target_url=target_url,
                    language="es"  # Translate to Spanish
                )
            ]
        )
    ]
)

# Wait for completion
result = poller.result()

print(f"Status: {poller.status()}")
print(f"Documents translated: {poller.details.documents_succeeded_count}")
print(f"Documents failed: {poller.details.documents_failed_count}")
```

## Multiple Target Languages

```python
poller = client.begin_translation(
    inputs=[
        DocumentTranslationInput(
            source_url=source_url,
            targets=[
                TranslationTarget(target_url=target_url_es, language="es"),
                TranslationTarget(target_url=target_url_fr, language="fr"),
                TranslationTarget(target_url=target_url_de, language="de")
            ]
        )
    ]
)
```

## Translate Single Document

```python
from azure.ai.translation.document import SingleDocumentTranslationClient

single_client = SingleDocumentTranslationClient(endpoint, AzureKeyCredential(key))

with open("document.docx", "rb") as f:
    document_content = f.read()

result = single_client.translate(
    body=document_content,
    target_language="es",
    content_type="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"
)

# Save translated document
with open("document_es.docx", "wb") as f:
    f.write(result)
