0:00In 22.2 there's a new product language,
0:02French Canadian.
0:03And so I thought in this video,
0:04what I'd do is show you how to change your
0:06product language
0:07across all versions of Tableau,
0:08whether it's Tableau prep, Tableau desktop,
0:11Tableau server or Tableau cloud.
0:13Let's get stuck in.
0:15So we're here in Tableau desktop.
0:16Let's start off with that first.
0:18You can actually do this pretty much any
0:20time in the product.
0:21The thing to bear in mind is when you do,
0:23it does close the product and open it up
0:24again.
0:25So just bear that in mind to do it
0:26when you've opened a workbook,
0:27not whilst you've got something going on.
0:29Just go up to the top menu here, select
0:31help,
0:32go down to choose language
0:33and you have your list of product languages
0:35.
0:35And as I said before, once you select one
0:37of these,
0:38it will ask you if you're sure
0:39and it will close Tableau and open it with
0:41that language,
0:41fully loaded up and across the entire
0:43product level.
0:44Okay, so that's Tableau desktop.
0:46Let's try the same thing inside of Tableau
0:49server
0:49and Tableau cloud.
0:51Now here, what you need to do is go to your
0:52settings
0:53and this is actually sometimes a little bit
0:54tricky to find.
0:55So let me go to the homepage
0:56and just show you how I got there.
0:58Let me open up my annotation tools
0:59and what I normally do is I always go up
1:01here
1:01to the top right hand side,
1:02just where you can see a profile icon.
1:04Go ahead, click on that face,
1:06you'll see you get a short menu,
1:08go to my account settings and when you get
1:10there,
1:10you get this page,
1:11which pretty much summarizes all your
1:13account settings.
1:13And you want to make sure
1:15that you're on this tab specifically,
1:17the one that says setting.
1:18I'm just gonna highlight that again.
1:20And once you're there,
1:21if you scroll down a little bit past a few
1:23of the settings,
1:24you'll reach an area called language and
1:26region
1:26right here at the bottom.
1:27And again, there you can choose your
1:29language
1:29and locale.
1:30If you just go ahead and select that,
1:31you'll see the dropdown for the different
1:33product languages,
1:34but also the locale supports slightly
1:37different setups.
1:38This can include things like number
1:40formatting
1:40specific to that locale as well.
1:42So you can set your language to one thing
1:44and your locale to something else as well,
1:45if that's something that suits you,
1:47as well as your time zone.
1:48I'm actually using a beta server here,
1:50so it is set to the American time zone,
1:52but nonetheless, that's where you can do
1:54that too.
1:55The very last place is Tableau Prep.
1:57Now here, it's very similar to Tableau
1:58Desktop.
1:59Make sure the product's selected.
2:00Don't do this while you've got something
2:02open.
2:02Go out to the top, select help,
2:04and here you'll see again a choose language
2:06option.
2:06Select the language you want.
2:08And when you do that, it will close Tableau
2:10and open it again with that language loaded
2:11up
2:12as the default.
2:13So that's how to change your language.
2:14French Canadian is new in 22.2.
2:16So enjoy that language,
2:18if that's something that's gonna be useful
2:19for you.
2:20And I'll catch you in the other videos
2:21about the new features in this release.
2:23Thanks for watching.
2:24See you soon.
2:25(door opening)
2:28(silence)
2:30Thank you
