    You can use the “locale” filter to set it to any value you want, though you need the appropriate language files installed for translations to work as expected. Hook with a large priority argument so your callback has the final say in the locale used. Check the boolean value of REST_REQUEST to ensure you’re dealing with an API request.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply. I have changed the locale through the filter, and get_locale() returns the locale I want right now. However, translations did not change accordingly right now. (I guess the .mo files are not called, as they have already loaded when the theme loaded.). How can I check that, or call .mo file deliberately(Maybe make a condition make .mo file load again when REST API request fired)?

    Thank you so much for your help.

    Problem solved! I just need to use load_theme_textdomain(); after changing locale to get the translation.

    Thanks!
