Internationalization for Stories

If you use our field-level translation functionality, you will also receive the translated content while fetching the story. Translated content can be viewed just next to the default content. Translated fields will have appended __i18n__ to the field name followed by the language code.

Similarly, for creating or updating content, you can provide the values for the translations/languages within the same content object by appending __i18n__ followed by the language code. Make sure to have the component field option translatable to true.

Get a full list of our languages codes on Github.
