Adding notification messages in multiple languages

You can create notification messages in multiple languages for the locales supported by your deployment. Users receive notifications depending on their locale setting.

Notification attributes receive their initial values when you create a notification rule. For example, if you first define notification messages for the English locale, then English messages are applied to all locales.

Note: To create messages in multiple languages, your application administrator must first enable the Enable Localization user option.
To add notification messages in multiple languages:
  1. In the Customize workspace and select the Rules tab.
  2. In the Configuration subtab, select the notification rule to modify.
  3. In the Actions tab at the right of the workspace, select the action to modify. Then, click the Edit button.
    The Edit Send Notification Action dialog opens.
  4. In the Details tab, in the Locale field, select the locale of the notification action.
    For example, select en for the English locale.
  5. In the Name field, enter a name for the notification action.
  6. In the Channels and Messages tab, in the Locale field, select the locale to create a notification message for.
    For example, select fr for the French locale.
  7. To define the notification message that users will receive in the notifications stream, in the Notification Stream Message field, enter a message.
  8. To define the notification messages that users will receive by email:
    1. In the Email Subject field, enter the subject for the email notification that users will receive.
    2. In the Email Body field, enter the notification message that users will receive by email.
      Note: You can use tokens in notification messages. For example, you can use the ${assignToCaption} token to include the names of users assigned to a schedule item into the body text of an email notification.
  9. Click OK.
    The Edit Send Notification Action dialog closes.
The notification message is added for the locale that you specified.
To view the notification message that you created, select the locale in the Locale field. Edit the notification rule again to add notification messages in other languages.
