# Asynchronously translate Contacts IDs

> Call this API to launch an asynchronous Contacts ID translation that replaces user IDs and department IDs in documents within the solution provider's permission scope.

# Asynchronously translate Contacts IDs

## API call description

1. Construct the document to be translated, as shown in the following figure.

### Note

Only files in xlsx, xls, csv, and txt formats are supported.

2. Call the [Single-step file upload](https://open.dingtalk.com/document/isvapp/single-step-file-upload) API to obtain the media\_id.
3. Call this API to obtain the translation job ID.

### Note

After this API is called, if the file is translated successfully, an asynchronous job callback notification is triggered.
4\. Call the [Obtain the results of an asynchronous translation task](/open/development/obtains-the-results-of-an-asynchronous-translation-task) API to obtain the download link of the translated file.

### Note

It is recommended to reference the returned file download link with the `<a> tag`. Do not specify the `download` attribute (due to browser compatibility issues).
5\. The file content downloaded by the user is shown in the following figure.

When calling this API, you may encounter the following issue:

* **Issue**: An `excel` file generated with the `NodeJs` third-party library `exceljs` looks fine in content, but the translation fails.
* **Cause**: When `sharedString` is not enabled, `exceljs` writes file content using `formula string` by default. This behavior is non-standard and causes translation to fail.
* **Solution**: Refer to the `exceljs` documentation and force-enable the `useSharedStrings` option.
