External Services
This plugin connects to the Langbly translation API to provide machine translations within the Loco Translate editor.
What it does: When you click “Auto-translate” in Loco Translate with Langbly selected as the provider, the plugin sends the source text and target language to the Langbly API and receives translated text back.
What data is sent: The source strings you are translating, the source language code, the target language code, and your API key (for authentication). Data is sent only when you actively request a translation.
