Set Notifications' Languages

This guide shows how to set the language for all notifications.

Overview​

Identity Manager sends all kinds of notification emails whose language is by default the language specified in the configuration as the first language.

The language can also be configured explicitly with a language code. If this language code is not defined, then notifications use the first language.

Set the First Language​

Set the first language for the whole application by proceeding as follows:

  1. In the XML configuration, create a Language with IndicatorNumber set to 1. See the Language topic for additional information.

    For example, to set English as the first language:


    <Language Code="en-US" IndicatorNumber="1" />

  2. Deploy the configuration and relaunch the server.

Set the Language Explicitly​

Set the language explicitly for server-side-task notifications by proceeding as follows:

  1. In the XML configuration, configure MailSetting with a LanguageCodeSee the Mail Setting topic for additional information.

    For example, to set the language to English:


    <MailSetting MailProperty="Directory_User:Email" LanguageCode="en-US" />

    When LanguageCode is not defined, then the language of notifications will be the first language, i.e. the one specified with Indicator set to 1.

  2. Deploy the configuration and relaunch the server.
