# GET List language translations

List the translation rows of one customiser language, in catalogue order — the order the merchant admin editor presents them in, which groups related copy together and stays stable across pages. Every row carries two phases. The `draft_*` members are what a merchant or an AI translation is working on; the `published_*` members are what the storefront serves. Only publishing the language promotes one to the other. `source_text` is the copy being translated, in the language named by `source_language_code` on the language itself. `draft_stale` and `published_stale` are true when the value is filled but the source has changed since it was written: the value still serves and still publishes, it simply no longer matches what it was translated from. `retired` rows are keys whose copy no longer exists. They are kept for history, excluded from publishing and from AI work, and refused on write — use `filter[retired]=false` to leave them out entirely. The operation is read-only, has no side effects, and is always safe to retry. Requires the `customisers:read` scope. A 404 problem with code `resource_not_found` means the customiser or the language does not exist on the store your API key belongs to. A 401 problem means the key is missing, invalid, or expired; a 403 problem with code `insufficient_scope` means the key lacks `customisers:read`; a 422 problem means an unknown query parameter, an unknown filter, or an invalid cursor; a 429 problem means too many requests — wait `retry_after` seconds, then retry.
