Smartling Strings API

A string is a piece of translation. Based on the source content, strings can be parsed differently. A string is then broken down further, into one or more segments. The Strings API allows you to directly upload strings to a Smartling project and fetch original strings or translations. For each string in a Smartling project, there is a unique identifier created by hashing together the parsed string text, [variant metadata](https://help.smartling.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008143853), and in some cases, [namespace](https://help.smartling.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008143833). When adding strings via the Strings API, each string will be unique. If you try to create a string with identical variant metadata and string text to a string that already exists in the project, the string will be overwritten.
