Hello,

I'm needing to translate my Evolve 24.0 forms to include a Spanish translation.  I'm using an Azure translation service, and it is working fine for the field names.  It also works with drop downs / combo boxes where I've defined the range manually.  The issue I'm having is that I have several drop downs or combo boxes that I'm populating the range from a Data Connection with a Reference List that I'm pulling.

Before I go recreating these ranges I wanted to see if there is something I'm missing.  Is there a best practice or step to translate reference lists in the forms that I should attempt first?  Example below:

Hi Jamie

Great you got everything translated but the data sources so far!

For that, you'd want your data source to have a language key, and in the form you can use $form.language to filter the list - here is the doc

https://help.precisely.com/r/Automate-Evolve/Latest/en-US/Automate-Evolve-User-Guide/Solution-Developer-Help/JavaScript-Reference-Guide/Composer-JavaScript-form-functions

so a simple example of a data source with fields Language and Value

EN one

ES uno

You would filter based on the users language - $form.language - and they would see "one" if EN and "uno" if ES.

Hope that helps,

Sigrid

For some reason I'm unable to get this to work.  Can you take a look at it for me? I believe I've followed the instructions correctly.  I've tried the lang as lower case and upper case and it still fails.  I was able to have a field when I typed into it as en or fr it would filter the drop down.  I'm not sure where the issue is but I was thinking it was having issues using the $form.language in the filter criteria for the drop down.

My apologies, I must have zipped the wrong file. Please see the attached.  This suggestion still doesn't work as the default value for a language field does not update when the language is changed. I'm also curious as to why the Precisely documentation you originally referenced doesn't mention a helper field for the language.  Is it outdated? It seems to be calling the variable directly in the Filter Criteria for the drop down.
