Economy v2 Localization

  • Article

Important

Economy v2 is now Generally Available. For support and feedback, go to the PlayFab Forum.

Simple localization is supported by using locale keys in your Title, Description, and Keywords fields for Catalog Items. Both Game Manager and all Catalog Item API calls expose these fields.

You can see suggested ISO-639-1 language codes on the Microsoft Support site.

Tip

Setting up player accounts for a third party translation services to use with the API can save time during development. Set the Economy v2 Settings policies to allow item updates for that player ID.

Our SearchItems API now accepts a new Language parameter. Setting a language filter changes the language analyzer(s) being used to the languages provided.

An example SearchItems request:

{
  "Search": "Pirates",
  "Filter": "Tags/any(t:t eq 'desert') and ContentType eq 'map'",
  "OrderBy": "lastModifiedDate asc",
  "ContinuationToken": "abc=",
  "Language": "en-GB"
}

Note
