Translate Words into GIFs and Stickers

In this lesson, we'll focus on GIPHY's translate endpoint for both GIFs and stickers.

The translate endpoint

Sometimes, we have words that best fit our conversation’s context but can’t think of a GIF that actually utilizes those words. This is where GIPHY's translate endpoint helps us. It converts words and phrases into an appropriate GIF or sticker by using GIPHY's special sauce algorithm.

It takes a string type (s) request parameter along with the GIPHY API key. It returns a GIF or a sticker that best matches the given search term s in a single JSON response.
