# Localization

You can export the text content used in the chatbot for translating it into other languages. DeepConverse makes it easy for you to export it to a Google Sheet for collaborative editing and sharing. Once you are ready with the translations and the locales for your site you can import it back into DeepConverse. 

### Exporting Translations

To export translations navigate to the chatbot that you would like to export.

On the chatbot page click Actions > Export/Import Translations.

In the open form click Submit if you would like to export to a new sheet, or enter the Sheet Key and Worksheet Title for the sheet you would like to update. 

*Once the export is completed the sheet will be shared with your email.*

**Prefill Auto Translation**&#x20;

This allows you to prefill the sheet with Google Translate values if the translation does not exist.

Here is an example of how the exported translations would look like.

### Adding Translations&#x20;

Once you have exported the text into the Google Sheet you can add additional columns each representing a locale that you would like to target.&#x20;

Add the corresponding translation for that row in the cell.

Here is an example of how **French (fr)** is added into the sheet.

***Tip***: You can use the [GOOGLETRANSLATE](https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093331?hl=en) function already available in Google Sheets for quick translations

**Notes**:

1. Locales in the Google Sheet should match the locales you use in your production/deployment environments for the translations to get picked up.
2. If a text doesn't have the the corresponding language translation then it will default to using text from 'en\_us' as the fallback
