Once the language file is downloaded on your system, translate the content in excel format.
Use the following steps to translate the content in the downloaded excel format:

If it's the first time you're translating to the language, translate content in the sheet Full.
-
If you're translating the new content created, translate content in the sheet Delta.
- Translate the content in the target language column.
- You receive the following error when the downloaded content exceeds the character limit of the excel and cannot be translated in the excel format.
- Error: Field could not be exported due to Excel character limit. Please update the translation on Whatfix Dashboard.
