Translating your Judge.me resources consists of two parts:

Translating the general resources of the Judge.me app

The general resources of the Judge.me app come translated out of the box with the Judge.me app itself. Those are the general texts that the Judge.me app uses, like "Write a review", "Customer reviews", "Most Recent", etc.:

To activate those translations, go to Judge.me -> General settings.
​
Under the "Do you expect to receive reviews in multiple languages?" section, you'll need to enable the Show headers for all widgets in each of your store's languages checkbox:

This will activate the pre-defined translations for the General texts in Judge.me:

Now, you may proceed with translating the actual reviews with Translation Lab.

Translating the Judge.me reviews

The first thing you need to do is to add your Judge.me Public API key so that our app has access to the Judge.me reviews. This step is only required once.

Go to General settings -> Integrations -> and click the View API token button:

Then, copy the Public API token:

And add it in Translation Lab, under the Settings -> General Settings page:

And save the changes. Now that T Lab has the public API key, go to Translations -> Judge.me and click the Sync button:

The Sync process will gather all the reviews from Judge.me and once complete, you can either translate them manually or, automatically, by clicking the Bulk translate button.

Make sure you have the Custom translations app embed enabled in your theme Customizer -> App embeds, so that the Judge.me review translations are active on your store.

Note that if new reviews are added to the store, you need to Sync the Judge.me resources again, and then translate the new content. This is necessary since Judge.me does not support the multi-language feature and does not store its resources on Shopify's servers as "translatable" resources.
