How to create a return kit?

I would like to create a plugin that allows the user to create a return kit and upload to the server from the Editor View.

What is the best method to access this functionality from the API?

  • I have no idea if this would work, but my understanding is the same as your in that the return package is simply an sdlxliff inside a compressed folder that has the extension of .sdlrpx.wsxz instead of zip. Have you tried simply zipping up the sdlxliff(s) from the project folder and renaming it to match the standard above? I am not a developer so i couldn't say if those calls exist in the SDL SDK but am familiar enough to know that those functions are pretty basic, as long as SDL lets you get to the sdlxliff you could likely give it a go.

  • Hi Eric,
    Thanks. Well, the WSXZ is a zip file alright, but in there lies a since xlf (in WorldSever format) not an sdlxliff.
    So unfortunately WS does not recognize it. Even if I extract the sdlxliff and rename it to xlf and upload to WS, I don't get error, only the message that no items were imported.
    So there needs to be a conversion from sdlxliff to WS xliff.
    And you know what, it is a simple conversion. So I can't think that this is not exposed by the APIs. I very much would prefer to access the function via the APIs rather then writing a conversion code myself... (which is still an option though), but I prefer not.
    Best, Balázs
