Multi-language report Power BI
Thankyou, lbendlin, for your response.
Hi Elisa_Costanza,
We appreciate your inquiry submitted through the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
Based on my understanding, Power BI reports do not automatically translate report metadata, labels, or data values. Multi-language support requires configuring translations at various levels and ensuring that the embedded configuration supplies the appropriate locale.
Please follow the approach below, which may help resolve the issue:
- Use the official Translations Builder tool to translate table names, column names, and measure names in the dataset.
- For text elements such as titles, buttons, or slicers, use a localized labels table or the Translations Builder so these elements update according to the selected language.
- If data must be available in multiple languages, add translation tables or localized columns and link them to the report.
- The web application can control the language by passing locale settings (for example, de-DE for German) or by relying on the browser’s language headers.
