Upload screenshots of your content in action to help translators with context.

Screenshots serve as an essential preventative measure that you should utilize to achieve the best quality of translations. Link screenshots to multiple source keys and tag them to build your context base.

What are screenshot tags? Screenshot tags are essentially labels or identifiers that you can attach to your screenshots. They serve as a powerful tool to help you better manage and organize your screenshots.

How do tags help categorize screenshots? Tags can be used to categorize your screenshots based on any criteria that you find useful. For example, you might use tags to group screenshots by:

  • Feature: Group screenshots that pertain to a specific feature of your application. This can be particularly useful when you’re working on a large project with multiple features.

  • Screen: Group screenshots that belong to a specific screen or page of your application. This can help you quickly locate all the screenshots for a particular screen.

  • User Flow: Group screenshots that represent a specific user flow or journey through your application. This can be useful for understanding and visualizing the user experience.

By categorizing your screenshots with tags, you can greatly enhance your ability to organize and search through your screenshots. This can save you time and make your workflow more efficient.

Filtering with Tags: Furthermore, tags can also be used to filter your screenshots, making it easier to focus on specific parts of your project. For example, if you only want to view screenshots for a particular feature, you can filter your screenshots using the relevant tag. This can be particularly useful when you’re working with a large number of screenshots.

Updating and Managing Tags: Managing your screenshot tags is a straightforward process. You can add or remove tags from a screenshot at any time. This means you can easily update your screenshot categorization as your project evolves.

In summary, Screenshot tags are a powerful feature for managing and organizing your screenshots. They allow you to categorize your screenshots, enhance your ability to search through your screenshots, and focus on specific parts of your project. By effectively using screenshot tags, you can streamline your workflow and make your localization project more manageable.

Web Upload: The web upload feature is a user-friendly interface provided for uploading screenshots. You can simply drag and drop your screenshot files into the designated area or browse your files to select them. Once the screenshots are uploaded, you can link them to specific phrases in your localization project. This is particularly useful when you want to provide visual context for the phrases being translated. It’s a straightforward process that doesn’t require any technical expertise.

API: For more advanced use cases, we offer a robust API. This allows you to automate the process of uploading and linking screenshots. If you have a large number of screenshots or if you need to integrate this process into your existing development or deployment workflows, the API can be a powerful tool. The API is well-documented and provides flexibility for custom integration. This means you can tailor the API to suit your specific needs, whether you want to automate the upload process, integrate it with your CI/CD pipeline, or build custom features on top of it.

Figma Screenshots: If you’re using Figma for your UI/UX designs, you can take advantage of the our Figma plugin. This plugin allows you to directly upload your screenshots from Figma. It streamlines the process of keeping your designs and localization project in sync. Whenever you update your designs in Figma, you can easily update the corresponding screenshots in your localization project. This ensures that your translators always have the most up-to-date visual context when translating phrases. Find out more about Figma Screenshots feature.
