Can the AI agent create new translation strings or modify them?

Currently, this integration focuses on listing and retrieving localization data (projects, resources, strings, languages) to ensure read-only safety.

What is the format of the organization and project IDs?

Transifex uses unique slugs prefixed with identifiers, such as 'o:organization-slug' for organizations and 'o:org-slug:p:project-slug' for projects. Your AI will use these to fetch specific details.

Does this integration support multiple Transifex organizations?

Yes, the agent can list and interact with all organizations that your API Token has access to.
