Dynamic Lang Translation

Hello,

We have a requirement to translate report to multiple languages dynamically including all titles, tooltips, column headers etc

we have tried one solution using Tabular editor

https://thebipower.fr/index.php/2020/04/12/automatic-translation-of-tabular-model/

But we are unable to translate the column headers of table visual which is major requirement .

Is there any other sol for getting column headers also translated dynamically?

We are waiting for an update for Dynamic Lang translation from Microsoft..Is this feature available any time soon??

    Hey dia612 ,

     

    sure, you can translate the whole report with Tabular Editor.

    Check the following article on how to do that:

    Multilingual reports in Power BI - What the fact.bi

     

    If you need any help please let me know.
    If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
     
    Best regards

    Automatic translations work using this technique :

    https://thebipower.fr/index.php/2020/04/12/automatic-translation-of-tabular-model/ 

    Since March 2021, Power BI desktop doesn't display translations but it works in the service once it's published. You can revert to Feb 2021 to make it work again.

     

    As far as I know, the technique used in the blog post is the only one which provides automatic translations without registering in any translation website or paying for a translation service. Translations maintenance and validation are  easy. The new Excel plugin version from July 2021 makes it much faster than before.
