Update language name

The following code examples will allow you to update the name of the language for a particular locale on a website. This is used when you wish for the Language selector to use a different label on your site.

Things you will need
1. Domain name. When using the site API, any requests must be sent to http://{subdomain}.{tool-domain}/api.php/endpoint. e.g. http://demoapi.editortool.companyabc.com/api.php/login

Login
Before we can use the site API, we’ll need to log into the individual site. This can be done via either of the following API calls:

1. Site API (requires username and password)

POST http://demoapi.editortool.companyabc.com/api.php/login

{
     "username": "apidemo",
     "password": "apidemo123"
}

Response:

{
    "sessionId": "{session ID}",
    "message": "Set as cookie value for site_session",
    "sessionName: "site_session"
} 

2. HAL API (requires a token)

POST https://hal.mono.net/api/v1/reseller/account/site

{
    "userToken": "{your-token}",
    "command": "apiLogin",
    "siteId": {your site ID}
} 

Response:

{
    "status": {
       "code": 200,
       "text": "",
       "timeStamp": "2017-08-21T12:21:31+00:00"
   },
   "data": [
       {
           "sessionName": "site_session",
           "sessionId": "{session ID}"
       }
   ]
} 

Both calls will yield a session ID in the format 35 character alphanumeric. In any future calls we make, we must include the header 'Cookie=site_session={session ID}'.

Get all existing locales

GET http://demoapi.v5demo01.monosolutions.com/api.php/website/locales 

Response:

    {
        "locales": [
            {
                "id": "l5001",
                "name": "en",
                "label": "David",
                "dateformat": "d/m/Y",
                "title": "",
                "keywords": "",
                "description": "",
                "position": 0
            }
        ]
    }
] 

Update a locale name

We can use the locale ID from the previous request to perform a RESTful PATCH and update the locale's label.

{
    "label": "English"
}
