Embedded report, localeSettings does not set USERCULTURE()
Alright, ChatGPT solved the mystery...
After this function is called: powerbi.bootstrap(reportContainer, { type: "report" });Any localeSettings specified after that will be ignored.
Unless one also calls powerbi.reset(reportContainer); immediately after powerbi.bootstrap().
This was really a rather hidden limitation.
Super UserHi Anonymous - I have done this sometime back, can you try to do the changes in your embed URL?
Enure that you are using correct and supported locale codes (language: 'nb-NO', formatLocale: 'nb-NO').
If setting the locale settings in the config does not work, try appending &language=nb-NO&formatLocale=nb-NO directly to the embed URL as a troubleshooting step.
If still issue persists,consider contacting Microsoft Power BI support for assistance.
Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! This will help others on the forum!
Appreciate your Kudos!!
Hi, not much help from support... they only said that it should work, without trying it in practice.
I have had no luck with adding &language=nb-NO&formatLocale=nb-NO to the embed url either.
I have tried ading parameter language=nb-NO both first and last in the embed url (also tried with the additional formatLocale paramter):
The other settings in the config we use like the panes: { ... } element works, just not the localeSettings.
As I wrote in the start of this thread, opening the report in Power BI Service with the parameter "&language=nb-no" added to the url does indeed work as expected.
