Import and Export Phrase Files

Phrase files can be imported or exported at the WebApp catalog level. Use this feature to:

  • Make multiple phrase changes
  • Add phrase translations
  • Generate a report of all phrases to analyze or view

NOTE: If a catalog is read-only, a phrase file cannot be imported or exported. Most delivered catalogs are read only. To make a custom catalog read only, check the Read Only check box on the Catalogs page’s Vertical View.

NOTE: Importing a phrase file replaces all phrases, translations and dynamic help for the catalog with the contents of the XML file.

A user can also Add Phrases to Catalogs manually.

To export a phrase file:

  1. Select Admin > Translations > Catalogs in the Navigation pane.
  2. Click Vertical View for a catalog.
  3. Click Export.
  4. Click Download a file to download the phrase file.

NOTE: The file downloads in xml format, and can be edited with any program as long as the schema of the document remains the same. On import, the DSP expects the schema that was exported.
