How do I make AJAX call to external API?

Hi All,

I am having some trouble with AJAX calls even after going through the documentation. I am trying take some input, call the Google Translate API and return the translated result. I have a Google Cloud account and a generated API key but do not see where I need to include that or where I can specify headers. Are there any examples of that?

I am trying to make a POST to the API with information like this:

Method: POST

URL: translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2

Headers:

Name: Content-Type

Value: application/json

Data: {"q":"Hola, ¿cómo estás?","source":"es","target":"en","format":"text"}

When I try to enter "{"q":"Hola, ¿cómo estás?","source":"es","target":"en","format":"text"}" into the "Data" field, it complains about "Syntax Error, expression ends before here at the q" if thats helpful as well

Can anyone help with this please?

Thank you

I believe it goes in the URL itself, although I'm not particularly familiar with the API. This is what I'm assuming from glancing over it -

https://translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2?key=MYKEY
