            Translation Workbench

            Use Translation Workbench to maintain translated values for metadata and data labels in your Salesforce org. Specify languages for translation and assign translators for each language. Manage translated values for any Salesforce supported language. Translators can maintain translations directly through the workbench, or you can export translation files for bulk translation imports.

            • Enable or Disable Translation Workbench
              Translation Workbench allows you to specify languages for translation, assign translators, and manage your translations through the workbench or bulk translation.
            • Add Translated Languages and Translators
              Add languages for translation, assign translators for each language, and activate or deactivate a language’s translations.
            • Translate Metadata Labels
              Create and update metadata translations for customizations you make to your Salesforce organization, such as custom picklist values and custom field labels.
            • Override Translations in Second-Generation Managed Packages and Unlocked Packages
              You can override metadata translations for custom objects in namespaced unlocked packages and second-generation managed packages. For example, override the label on a custom field or workflow task.
            • Export Metadata Translation Files
              To easily translate your metadata, create files for your translators that contain your Salesforce org’s translatable metadata. Examples of translatable metadata include custom field labels, report type names, and picklist values.
            • Export Data Translation Files
              If data translation is enabled in your Salesforce org, you can create files for your translators that contain your org’s data translations. Examples of translatable data include B2B Commerce Product names and data stored in custom fields.
            • Work with Translation Files
              Translate metadata labels or data translation text, or review existing translations, with XML Localization Interchange File Format (.xlf) or Salesforce Translation Format (.stf) files.
            • Import Translated Files
              Import and update the translations for your Salesforce org’s metadata, such as custom fields, report types, and picklist values. Or import and update data translations, such as Product names. Typically, you export translation files from Salesforce, then send them to outside translators or a translation agency for bulk translation activities. You then import the translated files.
