We’ve made several updates to improve translation imports, making them more reliable and easier to work with.


Improvements
#

  • Theme translation links - Import results now link directly to the correct section in the Translate & Adapt app for theme translations.
  • Character limit warnings - File analysis flags translation values that exceed Shopify’s 1,000 character limit before the import starts.
  • Translation key limit - Clearer error message when a theme exceeds Shopify’s 3,400 translation keys per locale limit.

Fixes
#

  • Automatic batching - Large translation groups are now split into batches of 100, preventing failures when importing many translations for a single resource.
  • Per-row commands - Each row in a translation group can now have its own Command (MERGE, DELETE, NEW), so you can update some translations and delete others in the same import without splitting files.
