Multiple language support in PowerApps Control Framework (PCF) control for Canvas App

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by shraddha_113 4

While developing the canvas app, I discovered that Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) does not natively support multiple languages. To achieve multi-language support, we typically rely on .resx files for translations in other environments. However, in canvas apps, I couldn't locate .resx files or similar resources for managing translations.

PCF in model-driven app:

With translation in other language –

PCF in canvas app:

How can I effectively implement and manage multi-language support within canvas apps, especially when using custom components and controls like those developed with Power Apps Component Framework (PCF)?

    Hi @shraddha_113 , 
    I've just tested in a Canvas Apps, and the PCF resx translations (declared in the PCF manifest) are available in my Canvas App

    What's the languageId you get in the context.userSettings? I guess it's the browser language...
