Overview

OwnID allows clients to customize the translations used in their front-end implementations. This can be done by passing a JSON object with specific keywords and their corresponding values for each locale. This flexibility makes it easier to fine-tune user interfaces according to different language needs.

​
Setting Up Custom Translations

To override specific labels for a given locale, use the setTranslations method after initializing OwnID. Here’s a basic example: 
ownid('setTranslations', 
    {
        "en": {
            "account-recover": {
                "title": "Speed up your sign-in",
                "description": "Would you like sign-in without a password?",
                "cta": "Use Face ID",
                "skip": "I prefer to set a password",
                "md": {
                    "cta": "Continue"
                }
            }
        },
        "fr": {
            //replace this with the translations for french language
        }
    }
);
Please note:
  • You can override translations for as many or as few labels as necessary.
  • This code should be executed after initializing OwnID.
As a best practice, only override the labels that are strictly necessary. Additionally, we recommend validating your JSON format using an online tool (such as JSONLint) to ensure there are no syntax errors.

​
Accessing Existing Labels

Clients can access the existing labels for different locales using the following URL pattern: 
https://i18n.prod.ownid.com/<locale>/web-sdk.json
The master file is considered the English language.
