Import/sync user settings from another Weblate instance/server/deployment

Open WofWca opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the problem

It is common for people who translate one project to want to translate another, which may be self-hosting a Weblate instance. It is annoying to create and set an account on each of them (selecting languages to translate and secondary languages, workflow preferences, external links).

Describe the solution you'd like

A way to sync setting between different instances. Maybe a file export-import, or a direct cross-origin HTTP request.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Need to make sure that it's safe to import settings from a malicious source.

There is already user data download, so the missing part is support for importing that.
