Import multi-language data

Question

Odoo's data import features are fantastic and help when transfering information from other systems.
However, one thing is missing: dealing with multi-language fields. For example, articles named in English, Spanish and Catalan. In both export and import, there is a single "name" field, without differentiating languages.
Any idea for massive importation of article descriptions in different languages?

Hi Josep,
you can create separate csv files for each language, with only the record ids and the translated fields.
if you are importing data through Favorites -> Import, for each language, switch to that language in the user profile and then import the corresponding language file
If you are using the external API, you can select the language of your data through the context: context: {'lang': 'en_US'}
