/AWS1/CL_XL8=>STARTTEXTTRANSLATIONJOB()¶
About StartTextTranslationJob¶
Starts an asynchronous batch translation job. Use batch translation jobs to
translate large volumes of text across multiple documents at once.
For batch translation, you can input documents with different source languages (specify auto
as the source language). You can specify one
or more target languages. Batch translation translates each input document into each of the target languages.
For more information, see
Asynchronous batch processing.
Batch translation jobs can be described with the DescribeTextTranslationJob operation, listed with the ListTextTranslationJobs operation, and stopped with the StopTextTranslationJob operation.

This parameter accepts only one parallel data resource.
Active Custom Translation jobs are priced at a higher rate than other jobs that don't use parallel data. For more information, see Amazon Translate pricing.
For a list of available parallel data resources, use the ListParallelData operation.
