Smarter Import Workflows: Keep Phrase States Intact During Import

You asked, and we listened. Importing phrases is now more seamless and straightforward than ever with our new functionality that preserves phrase states during import.

Managing translations at scale often means re-importing source phrases as your content evolves.

But what happens when phrases you’ve already handled in Localize are imported again?

Previously, re-imported phrases — even those already reviewed or published — could trigger the need to re-manage the status of phrases that were already neatly organized into your specific bins.

That’s why we’ve introduced a new import workflow that respects the state of your phrases.

Now, during import, Localize will recognize existing phrases and respect their current state, regardless of whether you’ve imported updated translations.

No more re-managing the status of your phrases, no more extra tweaks in your dashboard.

Just more control, more time saved, and more simplicity built into your processes.
