- Around line 33-35: Update the heading for the available languages API section
to use the exact operation name getAvailableLanguages, matching the checklist
text and API link.
- Around line 35-39: Update the new-language configuration guidance in the
“getAvailableLanguages” documentation to describe both the node-local
“studio-config-override.yaml” option and the cluster-replicated global override
under “data/repos/global/configuration”, noting that the global override loads
last; alternatively, explicitly limit the procedure to single-node
installations.
