Hello all, we're adding a new German subsidiary into our account and have enabled the German language under General Prefs but we're finding none of our cusotm fields or field help are translated leaving this UI in a mix of Eng and Ger languages.
Is there a way to bulk update translations for all our custom fields and field descriptions etc?

Thanks, I saw that but doesn't answer my Q. Looking at the Bulk Update Translation page now this only supports items, categories and our expense categories and not our custom field names/descriptions of which I have hundreds to translate.

For our Chile migration I wrote a node JS script for exporting/importing translations for custom fields and objects using puppeteer.

We used the utility to export existing fields name and help to a CSV, used a Google Translate function in Google Sheets to automate translations which were then looked over by our translater and then reuploaded the CSV with translations

<@U29QCJQF3> Thanks for the steer. Node.JS and Puppeteer are new to me so I'll do some research into those today :)
