blogTranslate

Creates a translation of a blog in another locale. The translation is a new blog with its own ID, linked to the source through localizedReferences. It's created as a draft; publish it with blogPublish.

Any field you leave out of input is copied from the source, except its status and publish dates. Each locale can have one translation; translating into a locale that already has one returns an error, so use the update mutation on the translation's ID to change it.

Fails while a content release is selected (X-Pack-Release-Id). To read translated content, pass language and country to the @inContext directive; see Localization.
