I’m currently building a workflow where I’d like to use internationalization (i18n) to dynamically translate content based on the user’s language – ideally by using an i18n.t() function or something similar. We use it already for our apps.
Is there a way to integrate or reference i18n functionality within a Retool workflow, perhaps through the setup script or another method? I’d appreciate any guidance or best practices you could share.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Welcome to the community, @Helen_Vedder! Thanks for reaching out.
I haven't specifically tested this, but you should be able to integrate i18n functionality by adding a corresponding library to your workflow runtime environment.
Note that this will be a generic implementation in the sense that it is independent of any i18n settings that you've configured elsewhere in Retool. The other caveat is that workflow runs don't inherently have a current_user associated with them. You would instead have to pass in information about the desired translation when triggering the workflow.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any additional questions.
