Transliterator API — Practical Guide

A hands-on guide to Transliterator API: what it does, when to use each mode, the parameters that actually matter, and how to read responses for SEO slugs, filenames, app identifiers, and more.

Last updated: 07 mrt. 2026, 11:13 API Version: v1 Burst: 20 req/s Latency: 12.5 ms Cost: 0.009 credits/req

#What Transliterator solves

Send a text in any supported script (e.g., Cyrillic, Greek) and get a clean Latin version and/or a specific formatting: slug, snake_case, camelCase, Capital Case, UPPER, or lower. Perfect for SEO URLs, file/ID normalization, search indexing, and consistent UI labels.

#Endpoint & when to use it

#`POST https://api.yeb.to/v1/transliterator`

Best for: Turning any input into a safe, predictable string for URLs, filenames, database keys, and user-facing titles.
How it works: We transliterate to Latin and then apply the chosen type transform (slug/snake/camel/etc.).
Idempotent: Same input parameters → same output; safe to cache.

#Quick start

# Plain transliteration (auto-detect language)
curl -X POST "https://api.yeb.to/v1/transliterator" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "api_key": "YOUR_KEY", "text": "пример" }'

# SEO slug with custom delimiter
curl -X POST "https://api.yeb.to/v1/transliterator" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "api_key": "YOUR_KEY", "lang": "ru", "text": "тест транслитерация", "type": "slug", "delimiter": "_" }'

#Parameters that actually matter

Param	Required	What to pass in practice	Why it matters
`api_key`	Yes	Send from server/edge. Don’t expose raw keys in client JS.	Auth & rate limiting.
`text`	Yes	Up to 255 chars; emojis and unsupported symbols are stripped.	Primary content to process.
`lang`	No	ISO code of input script (e.g., `bg`, `ru`, `el`). If omitted, we auto-detect.	Improves accuracy for ambiguous inputs.
`type`	No	`plain \| slug \| snake \| camel \| capital \| upper \| lower`	Choose the output format you need.
`delimiter`	No	Use with slug/snake to set the separator (default `-` for slug, `_` for snake).	Brand-consistent URLs and identifiers.

#Choosing the right `type`

Type	Use it for	Notes
`plain`	Readable Latin output	No case/spacing changes; punctuation trimmed.
`slug`	SEO URLs	Lowercase, spaces → delimiter, trims duplicates: `пример тест` → `primer-test`.
`snake`	Database keys, filenames	Lowercase + `_` (or custom delimiter).
`camel`	Code identifiers	`primerTest` style.
`capital`	UI labels	`Primer Test` title case.
`upper`	Sorting / normalization	All caps.
`lower`	Case-insensitive search	All lowercase.

#Reading & acting on responses

{
  "result": "primer",
  "original": "пример",
  "lang": "bg",
  "type": "slug",
  "delimiter": "-",
  "response_code": 200,
  "response_time_ms": 37
}

result — the processed string; use this directly in URLs/keys/UI.
original — what you sent (after trimming); handy for logs and idempotency checks.
lang — detected or provided language; helps debug unexpected mappings.
type, delimiter — echo of your chosen transform; store alongside to rebuild exactly.

#Typical errors & how to fix

{ "error": "Missing \"text\" parameter", "code": 422 }

{ "error": "Unsupported type: foo", "code": 422 }

422 missing/invalid: Provide text; ensure type ∈ allowed list.
401 invalid key: Rotate your key; send from server/edge only.
413 too long: Keep text ≤ 255 chars; pre-trim user input.

#Troubleshooting & field notes

Unexpected characters: Emojis/symbols are removed; if you need them, store the original separately.
Spaces & dashes: For slug/snake we collapse repeated separators (-- → -).
Custom brand separators: Use delimiter to enforce _, ., or even no delimiter.
Language ambiguity: Specify lang when inputs can be mixed (e.g., Serbian Cyrillic vs. Russian).
Batching: For bulk imports, keep requests ≤ 100 rps and reuse connections; cache deterministic results.
