I need to design report in Japanese language , if i design report in english and just change the settings mentioned in below documentation to japanese then will it automatically change all my report and chart titles in japanese?
example if chart title is “Sales by month” then will it automatically convert to japanese - 月別売上高 or this setting is only applicable for menu options available in Quicksight and not report or chart titles?
what are the limitations of below option? ( means for which Quicksight components it is not applicable or cannot change language)?
As far as I know, Changing the language settings in QuickSight will NOT automatically translate your custom report and chart titles from English to Japanese or any other language.
What Language Settings Actually Change
The language setting in QuickSight only affects user interface elements and system-generated content, including:
Navigation buttons and menu options
System-generated text like “Submit” buttons, “Correct”/“Incorrect” labels
Date and number formatting according to regional preferences
Assessment text and proficiency charts in the interface
Auto-generated titles that QuickSight creates
What Does NOT Get Translated
The language settings do not translate:
Custom chart titles (like your “Sales by month” example)
Custom field names and labels that you’ve created
User-entered content in analyses and dashboards
Data values themselves
Possible Approach :
1/ Manual Translation Required
For your specific example, if you have a chart titled “Sales by month,” it will remain “Sales by month” even after changing the language setting to Japanese. To display it as “月別売上高,” you would need to:
Manually rename each field and chart title - QuickSight allows you to rename fields and visual titles individually
2/ Alternative Approaches you could:
Use parameters to create dynamic titles that can be changed based on language selection.
