Hello everyone,
I am rather new to the shopify development (coming from Shopware) and have a question regarding translate / adapt imports.
I have an onlineshop with thousands of products in ten thousands of variations. A very common case is a variation in the “color”. Now from what I understand, I have to update the “color” property for each and every product (both the name and the value) - since when I update one product and say that “color” in German is “Farbe” and “red” is “rot”, it does not change anything for the rest of the products.
Is there a way to do that centrally? It seems largely ineffienct to do it for every single item.

In case there is no way, how can I update the translations efficiently? Currently I am using an update using the translationsRegister mutation, but this allows me only to update the translations one by one.
Is there are more efficient way for that? From the docs I read there is not:
https://shopify.dev/docs/api/usage/bulk-operations/imports
It seems that translateableResource is not updateable via the bulk requests.
I could probably use the admin backend in the beginning and later the API for changes only, but I would love to have an api-based solution that can run automatically and efficiently.
Thank you so much in advance for your help!
