Multilingual view of a list in a teams tab

Hi Community,

 

  • We created a issue list (based on the template) in a team and embedded it as a teams tab to a channel.
  • We changed the predefined column names of the issue list.
  • the german users are having a german teams user interface
  • however, most users are getting english column names of the list in the teams tab.
  • some users are getting the columns names correctly in german.
  • the list is stored in the corresponding team site
  • the default language of this team site is german

my questions:

1. What/which user language configuration impacts the display of a list in a tab in MS Teams?

2. How to control this from admin side, so that the language setting of the MS Teams App rules it as the master?

 

Thanks,

André

      Yes, its really important which browser language you have in the moment creating the sharepoint list. So as my best practice create the list in english browser language with all the column names in english without spaces and special characters. Afterwards change to your natural language and translate all column names.
