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??

  • Hi dia612 ,

     

    According to my understanding and testing, dynamic translation of column names is not supported for the time being. When I use power query to invoke the API, I can only translate the contents of the column, but not the column names.

    I see that you have created idea,https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=4ea1208d-4f5e-4376-a659-bb6a8a2ef4c2 

    which needs to vote and wait for the reply from the product department.

     

    Best Regards,
    Liang
