title: Gengo Account Glossary API
version: '2.0'
description: The Gengo API (v2) lets you programmatically order human translation. Submit text or file jobs, group them into orders, retrieve translated content, manage comments and revisions, run quotes, look up supported language pairs, and manage glossaries. Jobs move through a defined status lifecycle (queued -> available -> pending -> reviewable -> approved) and can notify your system via callback URLs. Authentication uses a public api_key plus an HMAC-SHA1 signature (api_sig) computed over a Unix timestamp (ts) with your private key.
