Translations Builder for Pro Workspace

✔️ Yes, as of late 2024, Translations Builder supports Power BI Pro workspaces. Initially, metadata translations required a Premium capacity, but Microsoft has since extended this functionality to Pro users. This update allows you to implement multilingual reports without needing Premium licensing. (blog.theonedynamics.com)

✅ Key Updates

• Pro Workspace Compatibility: You can now use Translations Builder with Power BI Pro workspaces.
• Enhanced Language Support: Translations Builder 2.2 and later versions have expanded language options, including support for zh-HK, zh-TW, and zh-CN. To access these, ensure you're using the latest version and enable the "Show All Languages" option when adding new languages. (community.powerbi.com)
• Machine Translation Integration: By configuring Azure Translator within Translations Builder, you can automate metadata translations. This feature is beneficial for larger models or when supporting multiple languages. (linkedin.com)

⚠️ Troubleshooting Infinite Loops in Power BI Desktop

If Power BI Desktop enters an infinite loop when using Translations Builder in a Pro workspace, consider the following steps:

1. Update Translations Builder: Ensure you're using version 2.2 or later. Older versions may have compatibility issues.
2. Verify External Tools Integration: Check that the external tools integration is correctly configured. Misconfigurations can lead to unexpected behavior.
3. Review Language Settings: Ensure that the languages added are supported and correctly configured.
4. Consult Community Forums: If issues persist, consider seeking assistance on the Power BI Community Forums.

🧪 Testing Translations in Power BI Service

To test your multilingual report in the Power BI Service:

1. Publish the Report: Save and publish your report from Power BI Desktop to the desired workspace.
2. Modify the URL: After the report loads, append the ?language= parameter to the URL with the desired culture code. For example:
   ?language=fr-FR
   This will render the report in French.
