Set organization language and formatting region

Admins can set an organization’s language and formatting region in Administration > Account > General Settings > Localization.

The account language controls the language of Sigma UI text for users in your organization and consumers of embedded analytics. The format region controls how dates and numbers display across your organization according to the specified region’s conventions.

Requirements

• You must be assigned the Admin account type.

Sigma supports five languages that you can set as the account language for your Sigma organization:

• English (United States): en
• English (United Kingdom): en-gb
• English (Australia): en-au
• English (Canada): en-ca
• English (Ireland): en-ie

The default account language is English (en). To change the organization language:

1. Go to Administration > Account > General Settings.

2. Under Localization, click Edit.
