# XLIFF String Exporter > Export files as .xliff regardless of your source file format URL: https://store.crowdin.com/xliff-string-exporter Category: File Formats Type: System Author: Crowdin XLIFF String Exporter is useful when you need to generate `.xliff` resource files for your application from your Crowdin project strings. This localization approach is often used when translating one application built for several platforms. For example, you can have an app for Android, iOS and Web platforms. Most of your strings are shared, but platforms can also have their own strings. To implement this translation strategy with Crowdin, you need to upload your strings from all your platforms to the Crowdin project, then create [Bundles](https://support.crowdin.com/bundles/) and use exporters to build resource files for every platform. Bundles can then be downloaded via Crowdin UI, API or even delivered to your consumers via [Crowdin OTA](https://support.crowdin.com/content-delivery/). ## Configuring XLIFF String Exporter XLIFF String Exporter does not require a configuration. After installing it, you can create bundles with this app as an exporter. ## Features | Feature | Value | | ------- | ----- | | File Extension | .xliff | | [API Type](https://developer.crowdin.com/api/v2/#operation/api.projects.translations.exports.post) | xliff | | System | Yes | | Supports pluralization | No | | Configurable | No | | Handles Crowdin Unified Placeholders | No | ## Sample File ```xml
