  • Keep your labels as short as possible. The translated label can’t exceed 1,000 characters (or 255 characters for definition name and version name). If you have a long label for a display text field, consider breaking it up into multiple fields.

    Note
    Note Each use of a merge field in a label reduces the 1,000-character limit by 66 characters. For example, even though {!Account.Name} is only 15 characters long, it counts as 66 characters toward the limit.
  • When updating a primary label, check whether it has translations, and update as needed.
  • Avoid text templates when translating an email body or other formatted block text.
  • Avoid using logic that references translated values.
