Token fetch endpoint seems to shutdown and Microsoft Translate stops working. Need to drop Microsoft Translate class.

I think the author of d4n3436/GTranslate wrote a token generation function:

I think the author of d4n3436/GTranslate wrote a token generation function:

The author only uses TTS API endpoint of Bing Translate web interface.

In old days I was investigating that web version of Bing Translate has a special API endpoint that generates an API token to use Microsoft Translate API. And it's intended for TTS. Microsoft Translate is like Bing Translate, but paid. So I used this backdoor to use the whole Microsoft Translate service for free by using the API token generated by the Bing TTS endpoint. Now this endpoint is unavailable.

Is it possible to restore access to the Bing Translate class? Now accessing this class throws an DEPRECATED exception.

Hello, as I mentioned before in my comment, I reverse-engineered the signature generation of the Microsoft Translator Android app, so it's now possible to use the Microsoft Translate APIs without any tokens, except for the TTS endpoint. The code is in MicrosoftTranslator.cs.

Can we port your implementation to Python 3 and use it in translatepy?

Sure, you can.

So I started to port the new Microsoft Translate implementation based on the d4n3436 version, but unfortunately I couldn't get it to work successfully. It's bad news. Good news - I implemented another endpoint by reverse engineering Microsoft SwiftKey. See #88
