10.2 Localizing the Preferred Language of the User

Identity Governance localizes the attributes and email text according to the preferred language of the user. The following is a list of the languages Identity Governance automatically localizes:

  • Chinese Simplified

  • Chinese Traditional

  • Czech

  • Danish

  • Dutch

  • English

  • French

  • German

  • Italian

  • Japanese

  • Norwegian

  • Polish

  • Portuguese

  • Russian

  • Spanish

  • Swedish

Identity Governance cannot always reconcile the differences in language that occur when different users collect data and run reports on that collection. For example, a user in Spain runs a collection for a set of data. Then a user in Russia runs a report against that collection. The fields in the report appear in Russian since that is the report user’s default language. However, the reported data is in Spanish because the collection occurred on a computer with Spanish as the default language.

You can customize the content in the provided languages. Alternatively, you can apply a new language to Identity Governance and OSP.
