Lokalise Deploy Integration

Overview

Translations must be downloaded fresh during CI/CD builds to ensure production always ships the latest reviewed content. This skill covers downloading translations as a build step, GitHub Actions workflows for translation sync, Vercel and Netlify build plugin integration, OTA (over-the-air) updates for mobile apps via Lokalise's iOS and Android SDKs, and environment-specific translation bundles.

Prerequisites

• Lokalise API token with download permissions (read-only token recommended for CI)
• LOKALISE_API_TOKEN and LOKALISE_PROJECT_ID stored as CI secrets
• curl and unzip available in CI environment (standard on GitHub Actions runners)
• For OTA: Lokalise OTA SDK token (separate from API token, generated in Lokalise dashboard)
