Changing Translations for Existing Fields

In order to change field labels, tooltips, or error messages for existing fields, you need the field key name and standard description for each field property. An efficient method to obtain this information is to refer to the JSON Field Configuration Export file, which contains all field properties.

To download the Field Configuration Export file, please follow these steps:

1. In your test site, navigate to Manage → Administration to access the Intelligent Configuration Manager (ICM) workspace.
2. Select Export Field Configuration.

The downloaded file is a JSON file that includes the key and default English translation for the label tooltip ("helpTip") and error message(s).

Field properties are identified as follows:

• Field label
  • "label" defines the file and key name
  • "english_label" defines the current English label text
• Field tooltip
  • "helpTip" defines the file and key name
  • "english_helpTip" defines the current English tooltip text
• Field error message
  • "Message" defines the file and key name

Once the custom descriptions and keys have been added to the customerResources.csv file(s) and uploaded to your test system, you need to change the file reference to @customerResources/<key> for each field.
