You may provide your native app in several languages.

To do so, youll need to setup additional translations in Purple Manager and also in the Experience Builder, which will be covering the text in the dynamic resources. Your app will later on be submitted to the app stores as one version, and depending on the default language of your users' device, show the one or the other translation of your content.

For details on setting up the dynamic resoureces, please check Structure of Dynamic resources.

In this article, you learn how to add a new language to the native translation text in your app which is coming from the textkeys.xlsx that is stored in Purple Manager. You will download the textkeys.xlsx, integrate a new language, reupload the file and rebuild your app. 

1. Go to Purple Manager -> 'Apps' -> 'Overview'

2. Click on the three dots in the upper menu bar

3. Click on 'Translations' in the dropdown

4. Next to 'app translation' click on the download arrow to download the textkeys.xlsx

5. Open the textkeys.xlsx file on your computer

6. Go to row 1 in the sheet and choose the column next to the last existing translation language (in this example, column G). Type the short form of the language that you want to add in the cell. E.g. 'es' for Spanish.

7. Fill the whole column of your newly added language with the translations. E.g. all Spanish translations in row 'G' below 'es'

8. After you have added all translations to the sheet, click 'File' and 'Save'

9. Close the textkeys.xlsx

10. Go back to Purple Manager, click on 'Upload Translation' and upload the textkeys.xlsx

11. Next to 'language selection' you can now see your newly added language in the list

12. You can now rebuild the app as an app Preview to test your changes. If everything looks good, resubmit your app, to make the changes visible to your users.
