Caching results from the Translator API would be useful to reduce the latency and the number of requests made to the API. Is this allowed? Are there any restrictions on what we are allowed to cache or for how long?

Sorry, there is not a directly way you can cache the result in Translator API, but you can create some logic to do it. One thing you can do is using Azure Logic App to connect the result file with the API, check in the cache first then do the translate. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/logic-apps/#features One sample by creating customized logic :https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62802736/azure-translation-api-caching Regards, Yutong

May we cache results from the translator API?

Hi Yutong, thanks for the quick response!

Sorry if it wasn't clear in my question - it is already my plan is to create my own logic to cache the results - the part that wasn't clear to me is if this is "legal" or rather "permitted" in the terms. I couldn't find any reference to the translator API in the terms.

Do you know if there are any restrictions on caching or storing the results from a Terms of Use/Service perspective? Or can we save and re-use as many results we want for as long as we want?

@Eric Thanks for the details.

Sure, this is legal, you can use the result if you are Azure customer and have a Azure account(which should be true and you pay for it already).

Please feel free to accept the answer to help the community if you think this is helps.
