How to translate multi files by Google translation API?

I'd like to translate multi .pptx files. I'm trying to use Google translate API

My request json file is below.

{
    "source_language_code": "ja",
    "target_language_codes": ["en"],
    "input_configs": {
        "gcsSource": {
            "inputUri": "gs://project_name/1.pptx"
        },
        "gcsSource": {
            "inputUri": "gs://project_name/2.pptx"
        }
    },
    "output_config": {
        "gcsDestination": {
            "outputUriPrefix": "gs://project_name/ja-en/"
        }
    }
}

I got this error, when I request translation API.

"description": "Invalid value at 'input_configs' (oneof), oneof field 'source' is already set. Cannot set 'gcsSource'"

Then I changed second gcsSource to gcsSource1

{
    "source_language_code": "ja",
    "target_language_codes": ["en"],
    "input_configs": {
        "gcsSource": {
            "inputUri": "gs://project_name/1.pptx"
        },
        "gcsSource1": {
            "inputUri": "gs://project_name/2.pptx"
        }
    },
    "output_config": {
        "gcsDestination": {
            "outputUriPrefix": "gs://project_name/ja-en/"
        }
    }
}

The result was below.

"description": "Invalid JSON payload received. Unknown name \"gcsSource1\" at 'input_configs': Cannot find field."

gcsSource1 was used 2 times in the document

How should I chagne request json file, for translate multi files by translation API?

Endpoint is this. "https://translation.googleapis.com/v3/projects/project_name/locations/us-central1:batchTranslateDocument"

Note

Single file translation works fine.

{
    "source_language_code": "ja",
    "target_language_codes": ["en"],
    "input_configs": {
        "gcsSource": {
            "inputUri": "gs://project_name/1.pptx"
        },
    },
    "output_config": {
        "gcsDestination": {
            "outputUriPrefix": "gs://project_name/ja-en/"
        }
    }
}

The issue is with the curly braces used within input_configs. Since you want to use multiple elements, input_configs should be an array. So you should switch the curly braces with square braces as follows:

"input_configs": [
    {
      "gcsSource": {
        "inputUri": "gs://bucket_name/1.pptx"
      }
    },
    {
      "gcsSource": {
        "inputUri": "gs://bucket_name/2.pptx"
      }
    }
  ]

Also, you cannot change the names of json keys, as the structure of request.json which will be passed to the endpoint should be as mentioned in the documentation. This is the reason that when you change the key to “gcsSource1”, it gives you an error with “Cannot find field”.
