# Translating your email designs with Claude

> Use Claude inside Emailify with either direct API translation or manual CSV prompts to localize your email frames in Figma.

Emailify supports Claude in two ways:

- **Claude API** for automated translation and import inside the plugin.
- **Claude Prompt** for a manual copy and paste workflow using the Claude app.

## Use Claude API

1. Click the **Localize** button in Emailify.
2. Choose **Claude API**.
3. Paste your Anthropic [API key](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys).
4. Pick the Claude model you want Emailify to use.
5. Select the email frames and target locales you want to translate.
6. Leave **Use Markdown** enabled to preserve inline bold, italic, and linked text during translation. This option is enabled by default for Claude methods.
7. Click **Translate & Import**.

Emailify will translate the selected frames with Claude and automatically import the translated results back into Figma as cloned localized email frames.

> **Tip:** Your Claude API key is stored per Figma user on your device and is not saved into the Figma file itself.

## Use Claude Prompt

1. Choose **Claude Prompt** in the localization options.
2. Select the email frames and locales you want to translate.
3. Click **Generate Prompt**.
4. Click **Copy Prompt**.
5. Run the prompt in Claude and make sure the response contains **raw CSV only**.
6. Paste the CSV response back into Emailify.
7. Click **Translate Figma Frames** to import the translated content into Figma.

In the manual prompt workflow, you choose the Claude model inside Claude yourself. Emailify will validate the CSV structure before importing the translated frames.

The generated prompt also tells Claude to preserve supported markdown formatting and keep markdown markers, URLs, and placeholders unchanged so the translated content can be imported back into Figma with the correct inline styling.

> **Tip:** The manual prompt generated by Emailify includes all selected locales in a single CSV prompt by default, which makes it faster to translate multiple locales in one request.
