German as default locale language

Hi,

We are trying to create an instance with German as a default language. The case we are trying to reproduce is that all the fields comes with german names by default, something like this:

MicrosoftTeams-image
MicrosoftTeams-image797×524 20.2 KB

What we have tried so far:

  • Setting a default language to the specific user profile which creates the instance and then create it.
  • Setting the JVM param on the machine and then create the instance
  • Setting the browser language and then create the instance

All of the above, results in German instance, but when calling “/rest/api/3/field”, we receive english names.

We have managed to do this on Server with setting a JVM param in pom like this:

<jvmArgs>-Xms1g -Xmx2g -XX:MaxPermSize=1g -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimig -server -Duser.language=de -Duser.country=DE</jvmArgs>

Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,
Philip

@fkasapov,

The localization approaches for Jira Cloud are much more limited than for Jira Server. Please refer to language preferences.
