# Upload PO file

You can upload a po file (translation file) to Damned Lies after translating. Note that the po file that is uploaded is that which is currently open at a given time; as it is not yet possible to manually select a file to upload.

In order to perform the upload operation, you need to be authenticated.

# To authenticate yourself:

Login to your account on Damned Lies

From your profile, click on the Create auth token button.

Copy the auth token that has been generated; you can find it just below your profile details.

Launch the Translation Editor and go to Preferences >> Profiles.

Select your profile and click on the Edit Profile button.

Paste the auth token you copied in the "DL auth token" field and click on the OK button.

You have successfully authenticated yourself. You can now upload a po file to Damned Lies.

# To upload a po file:

Click on the Upload file icon in the header bar or use the Ctrl B keyboard shortcut.

A message dialog will display the status of the operation.

If the message dialog displays a success message, you have successfully uploaded the po file to Damned Lies.

If the Upload file icon is deactivated, it means the po file cannot be uploaded. This is because it is not in the appropriate state. See the vertimus workflow for more details.

Note that a po file must be reserved (in the state; Translating) before it can be uploaded to Damned Lies.
