Shopify App Listing Basics
TranslateCI can translate your Shopify app listing and monitor it for updates. This means that you can translate your app listing into any language that Shopify supports and we'll provide human or AI translation and keep it up to date.
Requirements
Shopify doesn't offer an API for accessing your app listing, so we need to be able to access your app listing directly. This means that you'll need to make sure that your app listing is public.
Setup
All we need is the URL slug for your app listing. You can find this by going to your app listing in the Shopify App Store and copying the URL from your browser's address bar.
For instance, if you're app listing is at https://apps.shopify.com/translate-ci, then your URL slug is translate-ci
.
Create a new app listing project in TranslateCI and paste your URL slug into the App URL
field. Then select the languages that you want to translate your app listing into and click Save
.
Review Your Quote
TranslateCI will analyze your app listing and create a quote. When you're ready, click Start translation job
to begin translating your application. At that point, you will be asked to enter your credit card information. We use Paddle to manage payments and subscriptions.
You'll be given the option to use professional human translators or the latest GPT AI translations.
Next Steps
Once your app listing is translated, you'll receive an email letting you know it's ready. You can then log into TranslateCI and copy your translated app listing fields into your Shopify app listing. If you have any questions, or you just want us to do the work for you, please contact me. I'll be happy to help.
You should know!
It's important to note that Shopify has strict character limits on their app listings. If you're close to the limit, the translated fields can very often go over those limits. In those cases, we use AI to rephrase the field in order to shorten it. It's important to read about generating the best possible AI translations here.
