This integration is still in alpha.
The Contentful integration in Lokalise Vantage allows you to import content directly from your Contentful space when creating a project.
Instead of uploading files manually, you can connect your Contentful account, select the content you want to translate, and bring it into Vantage in just a few steps.
Step 1: Install the Lokalise app on Contentful
To use the Contentful integration, install the Lokalise app from the Contentful Marketplace and connect it to your Lokalise workspace.
Open Contentful and go to Apps > Marketplace.
Search for Lokalise.
Open the app and click Install.
Step 2: Select an environment
Choose the environment where you want to install the app.
The Lokalise app can be used with any environment, but it can only be installed in one environment at a time.
Step 3: Connect your Lokalise account
After selecting the environment, you will be prompted to connect to Lokalise.
Click Connect.
Review the requested permissions and click Authorize access.
Step 4: Create a new Vantage project
After connecting to Lokalise, choose New during setup. This creates a new Vantage project automatically. The project name is pre-filled based on the Contentful project name and the environment name.
You can click Open project to view the newly created project in Lokalise.
Step 5: Finish the installation in Contentful
While on the same Contentful page, click Install to complete the app setup.
Step 6: Assign content types
After installation, the Assign content types section will appear.
Select the content types where the Lokalise app should be available.
Click Save.
Step 7: Send content to Lokalise
Open an entry in Contentful. In the side panel, you will see the Send to Lokalise button. Click it to send the content to Lokalise for translation.
Step 8: Review and update translations
Open your Lokalise Vantage project. Here you can review, edit, and approve translations in the editor as usual.
Step 9: Send content back to Contentful
When translations are ready, click Send to Contentful in the editor.
Vantage will send the translated content back to your Contentful space, updating the corresponding entries.
