Spanish term or phrase: implementación
Yes, I have already seen the glossary entries. My specific is whether we could translate "implementación" as "plug-in" when it is used in this sense, for example:

"Contiene los objetos con la implementación de la petición SOAP del cliente necesaria para poder invocar el servicio de validación de comprobantes timbrados. Estos objetos son autogenerados por la herramienta Wsdl2Java de CXF..."

So, could we say that this usage corresponds to the definition of a "plug-in"? (Contains objects with the client SOAP request *plug-in* to invoke the service...") or do we need to use the more clunky " implementation"?

I asked the client to define "implementación" and he replied:
“Tenemos usuarios que no son informáticos y no sabrían como hacerlo, para ellos hemos creado nosotros una "Implementación" de este servicio. También llamada API, un conjunto de programas ya hechos con algunas funciones básicas. Es más o menos eso a lo que se refiere implementación.”

Explanation:
Depending on how little the users know. If API means nothing then just interface.
