You can display the texts of your views in the language of your users. You first define a default language and can then provide the texts in a CSV file, e.g. to a specialized person or translation service provider. The translated languages are automatically displayed to the users and depend on the language setting in the browser. However, you can also use cookies to control the language setting in your users' browsers.
If users are using a previously untranslated language in their browser, the view will be displayed in the default language you have specified.
Prerequisites for this example scenario
-
You have already created an app.
-
The texts of the views are entered in the properties of the components.
-
You have not yet defined a default language.
Here's how
-
Go to App-Details in the navigation bar of the app.
-
Expand the Languages area.
-
Select the default language from the Language drop-down list and click Add.
-
Add another language from the Language drop-down list.
-
Now export the language files by clicking the export icon under Actions.
The texts to be translated are in a CSV file. Enter the translation of the text next to the source text.
Example of the structure of a CSV file
"Neues Ticket","New Ticket"
"Filter speichern","Save Filter"
After translating, you can import the file again in the same place in the app details.
