Arabic translation is not available

[fasnakv]

Hello,

I have come across news regarding the DeepL Translation API, which announces the availability of Arabic language translation. However, when I attempt to use Arabic language in My typo3 site version 12, it does not appear on the list as shown in the figure.
why I couldn't use the Arabic language in my typo3 site,I have the pro deepl account

Hi @fasnakv,
you're right, arabic is available since Janurary, but at hte moment, the DeepL API doesn't add the language key to the list. The reason is, that arabic is currently not avaliable for document translation.
As we fetch the list from the API to avoid manual updating on changed langauges, the language is currently not available.

Please take a look at https://developers.deepl.com/docs/api-reference/languages for more information.

Dear @calien666
Thank you for the quick and informative reply.

You can add it manually to your sites config. I did it this way and it works:

• hreflang: ar-SA
  direction: rtl
  title: Arabic
  locale: ar_SA.UTF-8
  base: 'https://www.fellow.dog/ar/'
  websiteTitle: fellow.dog
  navigationTitle: العربية
  fallbackType: fallback
  fallbacks: '2'
  flag: sa
  enabled: false
  languageId: 27
  deeplTargetLanguage: AR

@Fasna-kv as the extension always checks against the API, this error will always stay there, until DeepL adds arabic to the language API.
As @weisgerberm wrote, the translation should work as expected, but be aware, your'e not able changing your Site Configuration via backend as this will reset your deeplTargetLanguage value.

Sorry, in my case, the translation is not working properly. The language is still in English rather than Arabic, as shown in the figure.

This workaround does not work for me either
