The Challenge

Localizing a Flexible, Component-Based Content Model at Scale

Strapi's open-source, API-first architecture gives content teams unusual flexibility — custom content-types, reusable components, and dynamic zones that let each page assemble itself from different building blocks. That same flexibility makes translation harder to coordinate: content is not one fixed shape, and a workflow built for simple blog posts breaks down against a real Strapi content model with nested components and locale-specific entries.

Component and Dynamic Zone Content Is Easy to Miss

Translatable text lives inside nested, reusable components and dynamic zones rather than a flat set of fields — generic export tools flatten or skip this structure instead of walking it correctly.

🧩

Locale Entries Must Stay in Sync With the Source

Strapi's i18n plugin manages each language as its own linked entry — without a connected workflow, there is no reliable way to know which locale entries are current, outdated, or missing entirely as source content changes.

🌍

Draft & Publish Doubles the Coordination Work

Strapi's Draft & Publish model tracks a separate draft and published version of every entry — manual translation workflows routinely update one status and forget the other, leaving draft and live content out of sync.

📝

Every Content Model Is Different

Because Strapi content-types are fully custom per project, a one-size-fits-all translation script written for one Strapi implementation rarely works unchanged on another — without a connector, that integration work repeats per project.

🔧

How We Solve It

Professional Translation, Run From Inside the Strapi Admin Panel

The GPI Strapi Translation Connector runs as a panel inside the Strapi admin UI itself — not as a separate tool you switch to. Content editors select entries and submit them for professional translation without leaving Strapi.

A Translation Workflow Built for How Strapi Content Actually Works

Because it runs inside the Strapi admin panel, the connector always sees your project's real content-types and components — not a generic guess at content structure. Projects are tracked through the GPI Translation Portal, and completed translations are delivered back as the correct locale entry, in the correct draft or published status, ready for editorial review.

Runs Inside Strapi UIContent-Type AwareDynamic Zone SupportDraft & Publish AwareLocale-Mapped Delivery200+ Languages

The connector reads a project's actual content-types, components, and dynamic zones, extracts the translatable fields wherever they live in that structure, and returns finished translations as new locale entries — respecting each entry's draft or published status rather than merging the two.

How It Works

How the Strapi Translation Connector Works

A six-step pipeline — from content authoring in Strapi to a published locale entry, without ever leaving the admin panel.

  1. 1

    Author Content in Strapi

    Create or update entries across your content-types, components, and dynamic zones in the Strapi admin panel as usual.

  2. 2

    Select Entries for Translation

    From within the same admin panel, choose individual entries or bulk-select across content-types and target locales.

  3. 3

    Submit From the Strapi Panel

    Submit for translation with one click — no export step, no separate tool, no leaving the Strapi admin UI.

  4. 4

    Professional Translation

    Certified linguists and AI NMT translate the extracted content under ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 certified processes.

  5. 5

    Create the Locale Entry

    Translated content is written back as the correct Strapi i18n locale entry, matching the source entry’s draft or published status.

  6. 6

    Review & Publish

    Editors review the new locale entry directly in Strapi and publish — no reconciliation between draft and live content required.

Platform Features

Key Features of the Strapi Translation Connector

Capabilities purpose-built for Strapi's component-based content model — so localization teams and content editors can scale multilingual content without a bespoke integration per project.

🖥️

Runs Inside the Strapi Admin Panel

No separate application to install or switch to — content editors submit and track translation directly from within Strapi, using the same interface they already use to author content.

🧩

Content-Type & Component Aware

Reads a project's actual content-types, reusable components, and dynamic zones to find translatable fields wherever they live — instead of assuming a fixed, flat content shape.

📝

Draft & Publish Aware Delivery

Returns translated content to the correct status — draft or published — matching Strapi's own content lifecycle instead of merging the two into one out-of-sync version.

🌐

i18n Locale Entry Mapping

Delivers finished translations as the correct locale entry under Strapi's i18n plugin, linked to the source entry the way Strapi's own localization model expects.

🤖

Flexible Translation Workflows

Choose fully human translation by ISO 17100-certified linguists for brand-critical content, AI-powered NMT with ISO 18587-certified post-editing for high-volume updates, or a blended model per content-type.

🔒

Enterprise Security & ISO Certification

Every project is protected by ISO 27001 (Information Security), ISO 17100 (Translation Services), and ISO 18587 (MT Post-Editing) — the compliance standard required for regulated-industry and enterprise Strapi deployments.

Content Coverage

Translate Every Type of Strapi Content

The connector localizes content in general across a Strapi project — not a fixed list of built-in fields — following whatever content-types and components a project actually defines.
