Set organization language and formatting region

View as Markdown

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 can set the account language to any of the supported languages. The default account language is English (United States) (en).
