Standard CSV files have a comma (,) as a separator. The principle is one language per file. Please note that CSV files can be uploaded only to Software localization projects.
CSV files should have the following columns:
Key name
Translation value
Description (optional)
Comment (optional)
The order of these columns does not matter when uploading CSV files via the Lokalise web interface. However, if you are using an API or a CLI, the columns must be provided in the order shown above.
Here's an example of a valid CSV file with two translation keys:
welcome,Welcome to the app!,Shown on the main page,Friendly tone
country,Select your country,Shown on the signup page,Polite toneWhen you upload a CSV file via the web interface, you'll be able to choose what data each column contains (or ignore that column):
When you are ready, click Apply and perform the uploading as usual.
