PHP grammar checker quickstart
Send text to the edits endpoint. Sapling returns suggested replacements with character offsets so your application can review or apply each correction.
No language-specific SDK is required. The example uses a standard or commonly used HTTP client to call Sapling's JSON API.
PHP
/api/v1/edits
$url = 'https://api.sapling.ai/api/v1/edits';
$key = '<API_KEY>';
$postdata = json_encode(array(
'key' => $key,
'text' => 'Lets get started!',
'session_id' => 'Test Document UUID'
));
$context = stream_context_create(array(
'http' => array(
'method' => 'POST',
'header' => array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Content-Length: ' . strlen($postdata)
),
'content' => $postdata
)
));
$response = file_get_contents($url, false, $context);
$responseData = json_decode($response, TRUE);
echo $response;
Example response
application/json
{
"edits": [
{
"start": 0,
"end": 4,
"replacement": "Let's",
"sentence": "Lets get started!",
"error_type": "R:OTHER"
}
]
}
Each edit identifies the source range and replacement text. Preserve the original offsets when applying more than one edit.
