We’ve refreshed the filters for translations exports. Picking multiple languages or markets no longer requires a row per value, and you can now scope an export to specific metafields without sifting through everything else.

What’s New
#

  • Metafield namespace.key filter - export only translations for specific metafields by namespace.key (e.g. custom.care_instructions, custom.size).
  • Metafield namespace filter - export every translation under a namespace at once (e.g. all custom.* keys) without listing each key.
  • Base translation token - the market filter now has a Base translation option that brings non-market-scoped translations into the export alongside any markets you pick.

Improvements
#

  • Language filter is now multi-select - pick several languages in one filter row instead of adding a row per locale.
  • Market filter is now multi-select - combine real markets, “All Markets”, and “Base translation” in a single row.
  • Saved exports are auto-upgraded - old exports with multiple Language is equal to ... rows are merged into the new multi-select shape on load. CLI scripts and saved API payloads using the old single-value form continue to work unchanged.
  • Empty exports avoided when only “Base translation” is picked - the primary language is no longer pulled in unless a real market is being iterated.

See the translations reference for the full list of available filters.
