If not turned off, translations will automatically be published to our CDN. No need to download translations or to redeploy your app for changes to take effect.

By using the CLI, you can synchronize your translations with Locize without having to change your code.

Like on your repository you can add multiple versions to your project at no extra cost — work on latest while developing and pull the latest translations to your production version when ready to deploy a new version of your application.
Automatic Translation
With this option, all newly created keys in the reference language are automatically translated into the target languages using machine or generative AI translation, like Google Translate, Deepl, Open AI or Mistral AI.
