This article provides guidance on how to deploy changes made directly in your Salesforce org in User Interface > Translation Workbench > Override.

What metadata types to include in the filter?

To deploy these changes you'd normally need to include in your filter Custom object and Custom object translation metadata types. Or alternatively, you can use our Default comparison metadata filter.

Example of a change retrieved in 'Compare and deploy'

Using below example, in this Salesforce org I've made a change under Field Label Override on a Description Custom field (this field belongs to a Trail Tracker installed package; retrieved as trailheadapp__ namespace).

Because the change I'm looking to deploy is a part of a managed package, I've made sure to configure my metadata filter to include the retrieval of managed packages (= Include managed packages option is set to All).

Learn more about it in our documentation on: Comparing managed package metadata with Gearset.

This is how I found my change:

And an image of how the change made in the org looks on the XML preview in the comparison results:
