Languages in inriver

When working in inriver, we distinguish between model language, data language, and the inriver interface language.

Model language

When you define an elastic data model, you select which languages you need to translate your product information for different channels and/or markets. 

All parts of the model (for example objects such EntityTypes, FieldTypes, and Categories) can be translated to the languages you include in your model.

In inriver, there are more than 800 supported model languages. Read more in this article.

Data language

Data language is the language in which you want to display the product information you work with in the system.

You can review the information in all languages defined in a data model, but the selected data language is the default language used to display product information.

Interface language

Interface language is the language of the inriver UI. You can select interface language in the Web Portal. The available interface language options are English (US), French, German, and Spanish.

User language settings

Language settings are saved per user. This means that different users can have different language settings.
