# Reset translations to defaults for an offer

`POST https://app.stoqapp.com/api/v2/external/preorders/offers/{id}/translations/reset_to_defaults`

Reset a preorder offer's storefront text for one language to STOQ's default translations, as the offer translator's "Load default translations" does.

**Note:** locale is optional and defaults to the shop's default language. Overwrites the shipping text, billing title and description (the deposit or full-payment default, by the offer's payment type), discount text, badge, button and disclaimer text, preorder shipping text, quantity limit text, mixed cart error and the four countdown unit labels with STOQ's defaults in that language. Other translated fields and payment-option text are unchanged.

## Path parameters

- `id` (string, required)

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` (string): A fresh unique key for every write (a new UUID, say); reuse it only to retry that write. Keys are remembered for 1 hour: the same key and the same request within that hour returns the first result, with `Idempotent-Replayed: true`, without running again; the same key with a different method, path or body is refused (422 `idempotency_key_reused`); a retry while the first is still running gets 409 `idempotency_key_in_progress`. Keys are per store. Server errors and rate limits are not kept, so their retry runs.

## Request body

- `locale` (string): e.g. `fr`

Rate limit: this call costs 2 points ([rate limits](https://docs.stoqapp.com/docs/rate-limits/)).

## Example request

```sh
curl -X POST "https://app.stoqapp.com/api/v2/external/preorders/offers/73a74948-2b57-4cc3-971f-2b441828c977/translations/reset_to_defaults" \
  -H "X-Auth-Token: $STOQ_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "locale": "fr"
  }'
```
