Change language app.powerbi
Hi all,
I would like my report in app.powerbi.com to be written in Dutch. I've set the language to Dutch, but the names of the fields are still English. In Tabular, I gave them all a Dutch translation.
In PBIDesktop, it's all in Dutch but when I publish it to app.powerbi, it's back to English. All the headers are in Dutch, but not the names of the fields. I have even changed the language of my computer and browser, but nothing seems to work.
Do you know if there's a solution for this, other than fill a Dutch translation in the section for English?
Hi, MichielvdH
Your workspace needs to be assigned with Dedicated capacity.
The only thing left to do then, is publish the .pbix file to the Power BI service. If you’re publishing to a workspace on dedicated capacity (Premium or A-SKUs), you should see translations being correctly observed in the Power BI service on both the dataset field list as well as any report visuals. If you enabled XMLA read/write on your capacity, you can even deploy the model metadata directly from Tabular Editor (Model > Deploy) instead of saving the changes back to PBI Desktop and publishing from there.
You can refer to the following blog to help you.

the fields wont auto translate cause they arent part of the app itself, you need to change it depending in the source:
1) change the fields name on the source if its a live conection direct query or else,
2) en power query editor you can also manually change the name of the fields columns one by one
the columns name comes usually manually defined or by the name it have on the source no way to autotranslate them casue they are not part of the power bi aplication itself
