'format': 'File format not supported'

[razor313]

Describe the issue

I've created a new project by importing translated files but once I want to download as the aresource (Android strings files) via wlc I face this error: Error: HTTP error 400: Bad Request {'format': 'File format not supported'}

Seems I have to change the project settings but I don't know how!

Please guide me on this matter, thanks in advance.

This issue looks more like a support question than an issue. We strive to answer these reasonably fast, but purchasing the support subscription is not only more responsible and faster for your business but also makes Weblate stronger.

In case your question is already answered, making a donation is the right way to say thank you!

Omit format parameter to skip the conversion, see https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/api.html#get--api-translations-(string-project)-(string-component)-(string-language)-file-

@nijel Thank you for replying but It doesn't work properly, the output file isn't XML file since it doesn't have this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="app_name" translatable="false">APP_NAME</string>
</resources>

I need to convert it into XML file since the files are in XLIFF format on the weblate. I've tried the following commands to convert/download them as XML format but none of them have worked.

wlc download PROJECT_NAME/COMPONENT_NAME/en -c strings -o en-strings.xml

wlc download PROJECT_NAME/COMPONENT_NAME/en -c aresource -o en-strings.xml

Meanwhile, could you please take a look at #7943?

You need the XLIFF to be used as monolingual to support conversion to monolingual formats, see https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/formats.html#bilingual-and-monolingual-formats

[razor313]

I changed to XLIFF Translation File but I am still not able to set Monolingual base language file.

also, I get this Error: HTTP error 400: Bad Request {'format': 'File format not supported'} once try to download/convert it to android format (xml/aresource)
