Trigger a batch translation job without monitoring. This tool starts a batch translation job and returns immediately with the job ID. Use this when you want to start a job and monitor it separately. Returns: - job_id: The unique identifier for the translation job - job_name: The name of the job...
Part of the Amazon Translate MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke trigger_batch_translation to trigger processes or run actions in Amazon Translate MCP Server. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
trigger_batch_translation can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

Trigger a batch translation job without monitoring. This tool starts a batch translation job and returns immediately with the job ID. Use this when you want to start a job and monitor it separately. Returns: - job_id: The unique identifier for the translation job - job_name: The name of the job - status: Initial job status (typically SUBMITTED) - validation_results: Pre-validation results for language pairs and terminologies. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Amazon Translate MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for trigger_batch_translation. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Amazon Translate MCP Server MCP server.
trigger_batch_translation is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the trigger_batch_translation rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for trigger_batch_translation. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
trigger_batch_translation is provided by the Amazon Translate MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.amazon-translate-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
