Upload a Translation File For a Source

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

Provide localization support by uploading metadata dictionaries for your data sources by uploading a translation file in CSV format for each data source you create. Use this translation file to define label translation for fields and custom metrics for your users in their preferred language.

Translation File Prerequisites

Build your metadata dictionary as a comma separated values file (.csv) as shown below, using appropriate Locale labels for each language.
Include as many or as few of the fields from your data source, in any order. Symphony displays the appropriate translation with each included field in the language defined by the user's settings. If no translation is provided, the original field name is shown.
Provide a translation entry for each language represented. If your file is missing a language entry for a field, Symphony rejects the file upload.
