Import Localization Keys

Once you’ve created your project, it’s time to add keys that need to be translated.

Within Translized, this can be done in three different ways:

• Manually
• Translized’s CLI

Import keys manually (in bulk)

To import a file manually, visit the Import tab on the left hand side, and drag or drop your file into the designated space.

tip

File formats you can import: Microsof Excel (.xlsx), CSV (.csv), Android (.xml), iOS (.strings), Java (.properties), JSON (.json), Angular (.xlf), YAML (.yml) .NET (.resx), ARB (.arb), PHP (.php), PO (.po).

Next, choose the language in which the keys have been translated.

Configure import with the following options:

• Return obsolete keys: Obsolete keys are those found in the project, but not in the imported file. You have the option to return all obsolete keys when importing a file - so you can keep, or delete them from your project.
• Override Import Automations rules: Disable previously set automation rules.

• Override existing translations: Override existing key translations with the imported ones.

Add a single key manually

Additionally, you can manually import a single key on the Keys page.

• Key: Key key.
• Context: Help your team members by providing additional context on where the key is being used.
• Key tag: Tag your newly imported key.

Once imported, you’ll notice that your Keys page has been populated with the newly added keys.

Import files using Translized’s CLI

Use our CLI and update localization with a single line from your terminal. Additionally, integrate CLI in your build process, and make sure you have the latest translations in every build.
