— by

Stay ahead in the global market by mastering Salesforce Translation and Localization. It’s crucial to ensure your Lightning Web Components (LWC) and Surveys resonate with users across different regions. Here’s a breakdown of five key areas to focus on for optimizing multilingual support:

1. Translation Workbench Setup
– Enable and configure the Translation Workbench.
– Assign translators and define supported languages.
– Translate custom labels, picklist values, and field help text.

2. Custom Labels in LWC
– Use Custom Labels to store translatable text.
– Reference labels in LWC with the `{!$Label.c.CustomLabelName}` syntax.
– Ensure dynamic content in LWC is also translatable.

3. Apex-Defined Data Types
– Utilize Apex to retrieve label translations dynamically.
– Consider implementing a caching mechanism to optimize performance.
– Handle pluralization and language-specific formatting in Apex logic.

4. Salesforce Surveys
– Translate Survey questions and instructions for clarity in multiple languages.
– Provide multilingual support for Survey invitations and responses.
– Use the Translation Workbench to maintain Survey translation consistency.

5. Testing and Quality Assurance
– Test LWC and Surveys in all supported languages.
– Pay attention to layout changes caused by text expansion in different languages.
– Ensure language fallback mechanisms work correctly for untranslated content.

By focusing on these areas, deliver an experience that’s both linguistically and culturally appropriate, improving user engagement and satisfaction.
