If you use [Lokalise](https://lokalise.com/), Emailify can send your source email copy directly to your Lokalise project and then import your translated versions back into Figma.

### Step 1: Connect your Lokalise project

1. Click the **Localize** button in Emailify.
2. Choose **Lokalise API** from the localization options.
3. Paste your Lokalise [API Token](https://app.lokalise.com/profile/#apitokens).
4. Paste your Lokalise [Project ID](https://docs.lokalise.com/en/articles/1400460-projects#project-id).

### Step 2: Upload source text from Figma

After your project is connected, choose the email frames you want to localize and click **Upload**. Emailify will export the text content from those frames into your Lokalise project using the base locale configured in Lokalise.

### Step 3: Translate in Lokalise

Open your Lokalise project in the browser and add or review translations for the target locales you need.

### Step 4: Import translated frames back into Figma

Back in Emailify, click **Import Translations** to pull the translated content into Figma. Emailify will create translated cloned frames for each locale you import.

> **Tip:** If your email copy includes bold, italic, or linked text formatting, keep the **Use Markdown** toggle enabled in Emailify so your localization workflow preserves that formatting where possible.
