How to bulk translate labels on multiple custom tables

We have an app in the app store and I need to add translations to every label on 40+ tables, about 550 fields. I tried to create a template to do do this, but I can't seem to define the table the translations should go to.

 

Is there any way to bulk add translated labels for our tables?

Sorry I wasn't clear. When I tried to upload with all those fields I got the following error

So then I used the import dialogue to create the excel template for upload. I clicked on "include all columns" and it returned a sheet with only these headers.

Looking at it more closely, it looks like that table doesn't allow quick imports, so you have to do import sets. I found this documentation which seems to be the proper path forward. Just commenting here for any future searchers.

@garrett-button,

That's almost certainly down to application scopes of the target table vs the scope you're importing in,

 

Many thanks,
Kind regards

If you are using dynamic translator, you can create a flow to to iterate through the fields in your custom tables and insert translations in the active languages which you will be getting from Translator.
