Dynamic language change in power bi desktop

Good evening dear,

I want to know if the language option was released as an update in Power BI. That is, the dynamic language change in an application, from English to Spanish for example.
I know that there are options to change the language by doing various things in the power bi desktop transformation option, but then you have to replicate all the indicators that were created. What I am asking is not to replicate and change the language 100% throughout the report.

Thanks a lot.

Greetings.

Default setting is browser language.

You change this for Chrome in chrome://settings/languages
You have to restart the whole Chrome after changing the setting before these settings work. Or you can change report settings from Power BI settings to something else and back again to browser language.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

To my knowledge, Power BI doesn't support it currently since Power BI cannot touch your data. 

 

However, I find some posts may be helpful:

Automatic translation of tabular model (announcement);

Setting up translations for datasets in Power BI premium.

 

 

Best regards
