Power BI Embedded set Language

[Hettic]

Hi community,

I'm trying to set a default language for my embedded report.

However it's currently using the language of the browser.

Changing the language of the user that is running the report in the backend didn't helped.

I changed it from Default (browser language) to "Dutch", but it is still using the browser language.

Someone that have experience with it?

Changing the EmbedUrl worked:

EmbedUrl = $"{embedUrl}&language=nl&formatlocale=nl-NL"

I tried using the proposed solution but it didn't work.

Not sure what the correct syntax  is?
This is the report URL that is running embedded:
https://app.powerbi.com/groups/{workspaceid}/reports/{reportid}

Tried to paste the following behind the URL: 
/languageid=nl

/languageid="nl"

&languageid=nl

/languageid="nl"&formatlocal="nl-nl"
/languageid=nl&formatlocal=nl-nl

Hi Hettic,

In PowerBI service, go to * (i.e. Settings) -> Settings -> General tab -> Lanaguages -> Select the lanaguage for PowerBI -> Select your language of your preference (default is the browser language).

Have you already tried above changes ? If yes, can you kindly share a screenshot of your report with dummy data so that we get a more clarity on your requirement ?

Question is are you trying to translate -

1) PowerBI interface 

2) Object Metadata (table & column names)

3) Report data

Please see if the following video is helpful -

Yes I tried the "above mentioned" setting and off course that will work for me as a user.
But is is an embedded report so I would like to set it once for all users that are running the report.

Therefore I tried to set the settings for the back-end user (one service account) user that runs the report but that also did not solved it.

Hello Hettic, 

Did you find a solution with the issue described above? 

We are facing the same issue. 

Thank you in advance

This worked:

return new EmbedParameters
{
ReportName = reportName,
EmbedUrl = $"{embedUrl}&language=nl&formatlocale=nl-NL",
AccessToken = embedToken,
EmbedTokenExpiry = embedTokenExpiry
};
