Crowdin integration for Shopify

Shopify Crowdin Integration, Connected, Tested and Documented

A Shopify Crowdin integration syncs products, pages and blogs to Crowdin for translation and returns finished text to your store. Select collections or the whole catalog, and new products appear for translators. Some types, such as metaobject references, are unsupported, and the CSV Translate & Adapt route covers JSON metafields. We choose the route, test and review, from $390.

  • Collections and content types selected for sync
  • CSV fallback for metafields and unsupported types
  • Translations reviewed and published per market
  • Test log and a recorded handover

Our track record

450+ Shopify Stores Launched Since 2015. Your Crowdin Connection Gets the Same Care.

Any Crowdin and Shopify connection earns its keep only if the data is right on an ordinary Tuesday. After a decade of building stores, we have learned where orders, customers and products most often break an integration, and we build with it in mind.

Who this is for

Six Situations Where Shopify Crowdin Integration Pays Off

Translation workflows need a clear owner for every content type. These are the cases we build for.

You are a good fit if
  • Your orders come through Shopify
  • Crowdin is, or will be, in your toolset
  • You would rather pay once than by the hour
  • You can review a test run with us
  • Stores with translators

    Content syncs to Crowdin and translations return to Shopify.

  • Stores with large catalogs

    You can sync selected collections or everything.

  • Stores with metafields

    The CSV route handles JSON metafields a live connection may leave untranslated.

  • Stores with custom data

    Some types such as metaobject_reference are unsupported.

  • App developers

    Crowdin also documents localising Shopify apps.

  • Teams relying on old pages

    The store listing is about 1,600 days old, so we check current support.

Problems solved

Shopify Crowdin Integration: Six Faults We Fix First

Translation syncs fail on coverage and review. These are the six faults we fix.

The problem

Unsupported field types

The outcome

Content stays in English. We use CSV.

The problem

New products not synced

The outcome

Gaps appear. We select collections.

The problem

No review step

The outcome

Poor text goes live. We add one.

The problem

Metafields missed

The outcome

Specs untranslated. We handle JSON.

The problem

Wrong market

The outcome

Language lands in the wrong country. We map markets.

The problem

No handover

The outcome

Setup is unwritten. We document it.

What is included

The Crowdin Integration Checklist, Group by Group

Connection

  • A scheduled check that the link is alive
  • Who-can-do-what review
  • Only the Shopify access the flow needs
  • Secure Crowdin connection via an API token from the translation project

Triggers

  • Event handled: a string changes
  • Trigger built for when a product is published
  • Sequence of events tested
  • Filters set by tag, country or value

Mapping

  • Extra fields mapped on request
  • Status covered, blanks included
  • Mapping for string key
  • Who wins each field, in writing

Safety

  • Retries that update, not duplicate
  • We stay inside rate limits
  • Opt-outs travel with the data
  • Failure alerts to a named person

Testing

  • Scenario tested: a new language
  • Test on a new product
  • First live runs watched

Handover

  • Two rounds of changes included
  • Every setting explained in writing
  • Ownership with you
  • Picture of what moves where

You share access, answer a short brief and confirm the test results. Everything else, from the first connection to the final log, is ours.

How the link works

How We Wire Crowdin to Your Store, Step by Step

Each connection follows the same path. The store sends an event, we check it against what Crowdin already holds, the right record is written and the change is logged where your content team can see it. This map shows the pieces we connect and test before handover.

Process and timeline

Six Stages From Brief to Live Crowdin Sync

A fixed order of work keeps the project predictable. You know what happens next at every point.

  1. 1

    Brief and scope

    We ask what you sell, how Crowdin is used and which events matter. A short review of your orders and strings shows where the flow should start and what it must never do.

  2. 2

    Access and connection

    You approve narrow access to Shopify and Crowdin, using an API token from the translation project. We confirm the connection with a live read before building on it.

  3. 3

    Map and rule

    We map string key, language, translation and status, then agree which side wins each conflict and what blanks should do, in writing.

  4. 4

    Build in a copy

    Nothing is built on live records. The flow runs on test data first, and you see the plan, plus a recording if useful.

  5. 5

    Test on real cases

    The tests cover a new product, an edited string and a new language, along with refunds and edits, and we check each result against Shopify.

  6. 6

    Go live and hand over

    When you say go, the flow goes live. We watch the first runs and leave you notes, a diagram and a recorded walkthrough.

How We Protect Your Orders and Customer Data

None of these costs extra. They are simply how we work.

Nothing sent without approval

No message to a customer goes live until you have read and approved it.

Failures raise a flag

Failed runs notify a named person with the order and the cause, so silence cannot hide a problem.

Build in a copy, never live

We never build on live data: the flow is tested on test records and your real orders and strings wait for your approval.

Counts compared, not assumed

Every load ends with a count against the source, which catches gaps and doubles quickly.

Narrow access, in your name

We ask for the least access that works, through an API token from the translation project, and every account stays under your ownership.

Plain scope, two revision rounds

The price is visible before you pay, and in-scope changes get two structured rounds, so small tweaks never turn into hourly bills.

  • Trigger for the event: a product is published
  • String key, language and translation mapped
  • A unique key on every write
  • Checks on a new product and an edited string
  • Written test log and video handover

Three flows running: Crowdin will send the new strings; mark the change for review; and open the language, plus filters, retries and alerts.

  • Everything in Single Workflow
  • A trigger for each: a product is published, a string changes, a new language is added
  • Mapping extended to status and custom fields
  • Filters by tag, country and value
  • Failed runs retried, then reported
  • Checks on a new product, an edited string and a new language

Two-way sync with history loaded, a fortnight of monitoring and a runbook your team can follow.

  • One-off history load of past strings
  • Fourteen days of monitoring after launch
  • Access and roles review
  • Written runbook for your team

Projects beyond these packages, such as custom objects, heavy history loads, multi-store designs or a custom API build, are scoped and quoted at a fixed price after a short call.

Roughly how many orders do you take each month?Required

Larger volumes need more careful queuing and testing.

Which way should data flow?Required

Fields that both systems change need a written winner.

Does Crowdin already hold records we must match?Required

Existing records must be matched before the first sync.

How soon do you need it live?Required

Standard follows the schedule your other choices set. Pay to move up the queue and go live sooner.

Optional extrasOptional

Why Store Design Expert

Why Hire Us to Connect Crowdin and Shopify

You are paying for judgement and for a result you can inspect, not for hours.

Notes a colleague can follow

We document what moves where and which settings we picked, so the next developer starts informed.

4.9+ from verified clients

Safety designed in

Retries, alerts, unique keys and narrow access are in every build, not offered as extras.

A price you can plan around

You see the cost and extra days for each choice in the calculator. Any Crowdin subscription is billed by Crowdin, so check what it charges today.

A direct line to the builder

You talk to the person working on your flow, and questions about a trigger or field get a plain answer.

We live inside Shopify

We work with Shopify orders, refunds, edits and metafields daily. That depth is separate from knowing Crowdin's interface.

What we need to get started

What We Need From You to Begin

We need a way into your store, a Crowdin account and a short brief. Pick the access route that suits you.

Approve a collaborator request

Already trading? Share the store address and accept our collaborator request. You remain the owner, we see only what the role allows, and you can remove us whenever you like.

Starting from nothing? We build first

No store yet? We build it in our Partner account, connect Crowdin there and transfer the whole store to you, so you choose a plan only at the end.

Or share a staff login

If it is simpler, a staff login will do. We prefer the collaborator route because it is revocable in one click and no password changes hands.

Your Crowdin access

Create the account yourself and invite us, or ask us to create it with your email. Either way you hold the owner role, and we use an API token from the translation project.

Sample records

Tell us where typical records live, or send a handful from each system. Real examples beat assumptions.

A decision-maker

We need one person to approve the plan and the test, plus a rule for what wins when Crowdin and Shopify clash.

We never need your owner password or payment details. Access is limited, logged and removable at any time.
