Translate Headers and Labels

Aside from the default feature of using the "Locale" to translate the headers and labels, translatations can be carried out through two methods:

  • Method 1: Translate Individual Items from the UI.
  • Method 2: Translating and reuploading the configuration exports within OpenPages.

Method 1: Translate Individual Items from the UI.​

Translations on the headers and labels can be carried out on the OpenPages platform through the UI by using the connected translation service. You can learn more here. This is a manual, one-field-at-a-time process, and also allows for manual translation input. This is useful if you are trying to just adjust a single header/label's translation, but if you want a broader translation you should probably export the configuration, translate that, then reimport it.

The UI-based translation can be set up to work with either a native translation service or a custom API wrapper. To translate using one of the two native translation services (NeuralSeek/watsonx.ai), complete the setup process as described in the product documentation. See here for more information.

Method 2: Translate Configuration Export​

Another way to translate the headers/labels for the OpenPages platform is by exporting the necessary configuration files, translating the data, and then re-importing the translated configuration file back into the OpenPages platform. You can learn more here.
