Steps
Create or reference a branch via the branches endpoint (or by specifying a branch name during upload) to isolate a release/feature line from the main content tree
Add source files under that branch with the add-storage and create-file endpoints, referencing the branch ID
Trigger translation download by building a project translation bundle (POST build) scoped to the branch, then poll build status
Download the finished build's ZIP via the returned download URL once status is finished
Merge or diff branches using the branch comparison/merge endpoints when a feature branch's content needs to reconcile with main
Known gotchas
Non-enterprise Crowdin API calls go to a plain api.crowdin.com host, while Crowdin Enterprise uses an organization-scoped subdomain ({organization}.api.crowdin.com) — using the wrong base URL for the plan type fails auth
Builds are asynchronous background jobs; requesting a download URL before the build status is finished returns an incomplete or stale archive
Branch merges can silently overwrite translations if source strings changed in both branches — review the merge preview/report before applying
