Lokalise manages your translation keys, tasks and vendor orders. FlowMattic posts translation updates to the localization channel, DMs translators when a task is created, tells developers about key comments and reports when tasks close or orders complete. For localization managers and developers who ship in many languages and plan releases in Slack.

When Lokalise fires Translation Updated, FlowMattic runs Send Channel Message in Slack with the data from that event.

Lokalise and Slack workflows you can build
Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made template
Post translation updates to the localization channel
Each updated translation posts with the key, language and new text, so the localization manager can follow progress during a busy release week.
At the end, every translation updated in your Lokalise project posts the key, language and text to Slack.
1
Connect Slack
Under Connects in FlowMattic, add your Slack workspace.
2
Start with Translation Updated
Create a workflow with Lokalise and Translation Updated, then follow the trigger's instructions to add the workflow as a webhook in your Lokalise project.
3
Edit a translation
Change one translation in Lokalise so FlowMattic captures the event fields.

Add Slack Send Channel Message, choose the localization channel, map the key, language, translation and user, test it and switch the workflow on.

Triggers and actions in this pair
A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Good to know
Translation Updated fires for every saved translation, which can be many during a sprint. Add a Filter on language or project if the channel gets busy.
Webhooks are set per Lokalise project. Add the workflow to each project you want in Slack.
Find User by Email needs the translator's Lokalise and Slack emails to match. External vendors may need a shared channel instead.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic
Lokalise and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Releases wait less on languages
Closed tasks and completed orders reach the release channel, so the build picks up translations as soon as they are ready.
Questions find the developer
Key comments land where developers read, so translators get context without a separate email thread.
Busy sprints cost the same
FlowMattic runs on your WordPress site with unlimited runs, so thousands of translation events need no bigger plan.
Common questions
How do I send Lokalise updates to Slack?
Create a FlowMattic workflow with a Lokalise trigger such as Translation Updated, add the workflow as a webhook in your Lokalise project, then add Slack Send Channel Message and map the key, language and text.
Can translators get their tasks in Slack?
Yes. Start with Task Created, find the assignee with Find User by Email, then send them a direct message with the task and due date.
Can only some languages be posted?
Yes. Add a Filter on the language field so only the languages your team reviews reach the channel, or a Router to send each language to its reviewer.
Can I hear when new keys are added by developers?
Yes. Key Added is its own trigger. Post it to the translators channel so they know new text is waiting.
Does this change anything in Lokalise?
No. These workflows read Lokalise events and post to Slack. Tasks, keys and translations are still managed in Lokalise.
