Any way to translate an exploded view?

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to translate exploded views and their individual steps to multiple gLTF files. The real goal is to be able to use the standard web interface to create parts and assemblies. Then create exploded views of the assemblies. In our own webapp we would then use the API to update the parts by updating the variables in the variable studio(s). These changes would then be automatically reflected in the associated assemblies and all the exploded views, which I need to use the API to then create gLTF (or STL / OBJ) data to display them in our own webapp.
I see the following in the API:
GET /assemblies/d/{did}/{wvm}/{wvmid}/e/{eid}/explodedviews
This works well to list the available exploded views. But, I can't figure out how to translate them. I tried using the following:
POST /assemblies/d/{did}/{wv}/{wvid}/e/{eid}/translations
but I can't see how to specify the id for the exploded views. I tried using elementId and elementIds, but it threw an error.
Any guidance on how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance!!!
