Setting language

The user interface of the portal website is available in the following languages: Arabic, Chinese (Simplified Han), Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish. Language determines the user interface as well as the way time, date, and numerical values appear.

The display language of the portal website is determined by the organization language specified by the portal administrator. If you want to view the website in your own preferred language instead of the organization language, you can do so by setting the language in your user profile as described in the steps below. If you're an anonymous user of the portal (no username or password), you cannot change the language.

NoteNote:

Changing the user profile locale will only update the user interface of the portal to display in the language you prefer. To view the portal help in a non-English language, your portal administrator will need to download and install the language pack from the Esri Customer Care Portal.

Steps:
  1. Verify that you are logged in to the website.
  2. Click your name in the top banner. This opens your profile page.
  3. Click the Edit my profile button.
  4. Choose your language preference from the Language options.
  5. Click the Save button.
