Lokalise Vantage: Braze integration

Learn how to connect Braze to Lokalise Vantage, translate campaigns, canvases, and email templates, and send localized content back to Braze.

Written by Ilya Krukowski

This article covers only the Braze integration for Lokalise Vantage. To learn about Braze app for Lokalise Expert, refer to the Braze article.

The Braze integration in Lokalise Vantage allows you to import content directly from Braze, translate it using your Vantage workflows, and send it back when translations are ready.

Instead of exporting and importing content manually, you can connect your Braze workspace, select the content you want to localize, and manage translation and review in Vantage.

Once imported, the content follows the same workflow as other Vantage projects, including translation assets, AI-powered translation, optional human review, and export back to Braze.

What you can localize with the Braze integration

The Braze integration supports the following content types:

  • Campaigns

  • Canvases

  • Email templates

These are the content sources available when browsing Braze content from Vantage.

The integration also supports content created with Braze's drag-and-drop message builder.

Note: Examples in this guide may use a single content type for clarity, but the workflow is the same for campaigns, canvases, and email templates.


Prerequisites

Before connecting Braze to Vantage, make sure your Braze workspace is configured correctly. This includes:

  • creating and configuring a Braze API key

  • fetching your Braze server region

  • preparing the content you want to localize

  • enabling multilingual setup in Braze

The setup process is identical to the Braze integration used in Lokalise Expert.

For detailed instructions, see the Braze app guide.


Create a Lokalise Vantage project with Braze integration

Step 1: Create a new project

Open Lokalise Vantage and click New project.

Step 2: Choose Braze as the content source

In the content source step, select Connect to your tool > Braze.

Step 3: Connect your Braze workspace

Enter the required Braze connection details:

  • API key

  • Server region

After entering the details, continue to the next step.

Step 4: Configure project details

Set up the basic project information:

  • Project name

  • Base language

  • Target languages

You can add more target languages later if needed.

Step 5: Select Braze content

Choose the Braze content you want to localize. You will see a list of available Braze items. Select one or more items using the checkboxes.

To find the right content faster, you can:

  • filter by content type

  • filter by date

  • use search

Step 6: Add glossary terms

Optionally, add glossary terms that should be applied during translation. These terms help Vantage keep terminology consistent across translated Braze content.

Step 7: Choose the workflow

Select how the content should be translated:

  • Instant AI translation — Vantage translates the content using AI only.

  • AI + human review — Vantage translates the content with AI, then routes content for review based on your review settings.

Click Start AI translation. Vantage will import the selected Braze content and start the translation workflow automatically.


Import more content from Braze

You can import additional Braze content into an existing Vantage project from the Editor.

To import more content:

  1. Open the project in Vantage.

  2. Go to the Editor.

  3. In the left panel, click Import from Braze.

  4. Select the Braze content you want to import.

  5. Use search or filters if needed.

  6. Click Import.

The imported content will be added to the project and processed using the project workflow.


Send translated content back to Braze

When translations are ready, you can send them back to Braze from the Editor. To export translated content:

  1. Open the project in Vantage.

  2. Go to the Editor.

  3. Click Send to Braze in the top menu.

  4. Select the content you want to export.

  5. Click Next.

  6. Choose which languages to send:

    • keep All languages enabled to export all target languages

    • or disable it and select specific target languages

  7. Click Send.

Vantage will send the selected translated content back to Braze.


Known limitations

The Braze integration currently has the following limitations:

  • Content Blocks are not supported yet.

  • Liquid code support is limited. More complex emails that rely heavily on Liquid may not appear or process as expected in Vantage.
