Ability to localize questions and answers—App Portal also provides you with an interface to localize the questions and answers that you associate with a catalog item request. The out-of-the-box questions and answers that are shipping with the product are already translated.

•
Ability to add support for additional languages—If you want to display App Portal’s end user interface in a language other than those 14 that are supported, App Portal provides you with an interface to upload translated text in additional languages.

Activating an Additional Language on the Languages View
The language that App Portal uses is determined by the browser culture settings of the user. However, some notifications are sent outside of the browser’s session, such as a successful installation email. The site does not know what the language of the target user is.
You can create collections to help identify the proper language to use in these cases. Collections starting with the prefix ESD_Language_<LanguageName> will show in the list. Select the collection that matches the selected language from the Select Collection list
