Import & Export

Importing and exporting is useful for a number of things. The main one is sending text out for translation and merging the result back in.

Add Translations points here for the export/import round trip, so someone following that page
arrives at this one and stops. What it needs:

  • Where import and export are in the editor
  • The export step: what you select, what the .csv looks like, one column per locale or one
    file per locale
  • What a translator gets, and what they must not change (ids, keys, placeholders)
  • The import step, and what happens on a conflict. Does it merge, overwrite, or ask?
  • Whether a partial file is safe to import
  • What else the round trip is good for besides translation, like bulk edits or review outside the tool
