Description: How to fetch Storyblok field-level translations from the delivery API after they are written.

General Translation writes translations into your Storyblok story as field-level localized values. This is Storyblok's field-level translation model, so you fetch translated content through Storyblok's own Content Delivery API with a language parameter.

## How translations are stored [#how-stored]

Translations are stored per field, per language, inside the same story. For a translated field, General Translation writes a localized value alongside the source value in the story's content, keyed by the target language.

This means:

- There is no separate translated story or document — one story holds the source and all its localized field values.
- Your existing story structure and slugs are unchanged.
- Writes are drafts, so translations are visible in Storyblok's editor once you switch languages, and go live only when you publish the story.

*Note: General Translation stores the localized value on a per-field, per-language key derived from the field name and the target language. Confirm the exact key format against the serialization code before relying on it directly; when reading through Storyblok's delivery API you do not need to know it.*

## Fetch translated content [#fetch-content]

Read translated content the way Storyblok documents field-level translation: request the story from the Content Delivery API and pass the target language.

```bash
# Fetch a story in a specific language
curl "https://api.storyblok.com/v2/cdn/stories/home?version=published&language=fr&token=YOUR_DELIVERY_TOKEN"
```

Storyblok returns the story with the requested language's field values resolved in place. Request the source language (or omit `language`) to get the default content.

*Note: use a Storyblok Content Delivery API token here, not the Management API personal access token you used to connect the integration. The delivery hostname and parameters follow Storyblok's delivery API; confirm them against Storyblok's documentation for your region.*

## Publish before serving [#publish-first]

General Translation writes translations as drafts. Request `version=draft` to preview them, and publish the story in Storyblok before serving `version=published` to your users.
