Implement into PowerBI & Tabluar & Excel Data Models support for multi language translations
Implement into PowerBI & Tabluar & Excel Data Models support for multi language translations

6 years agoThe Q&A in Spanish is nice, but something I see as very limited in scope. Sure you could send a team off doing release after release of Q&A in language X, but a lot more people need the basic language translation i.e. Based on the users locale or even changing the language in PowerBI, switch the interface, our model elements, and the data into that language. What I'd like to see is the following: 1. Interface - Allow me to enable language translation for a model and specify one or more languages that I want to translate for. 2. Model - Based on the language(s) selected, give me an interface where I can enter translations for the tables, columns, measures, etc. for each of the languages (which is basically a duplicate of what we have in OLAP cubes). 3. Data - Give me a simple grid with my languages across the top and a drop down that is a column picker for each language that allows me to specify the column to query/display based on my language setting. For example: English pulls the Product column, Spanish pulls the Product_es column, and French pulls the Product_fr column. If you stopped here as a V1 feature, you'd satisfy a large number of people needing language translation capabilities. The majority of the language translation I've come across, people simply have 1 column in the table definition for each language the data needs to be translated into. If you really want to knock yourselves out, you could extend this to: A. Allow someone to specify something like a key-value pair table that would translate the model elements B. Allow me to specify a column in another table where the translated data sits
