Set SDK language

You can set the SDK language using this API. By default, the device's preferred language is used by the SDK.

The call will fail in the following cases:

• If a Helpshift session is already active at the time of invocation
• Language code is incorrect

For example :

Setting SDK language for the given locale with only language code.

using Helpshift

void Awake(){
    // Install call here
}

void setLanguage(){
    HelpshiftSdk.GetInstance().SetSDKLanguage("fr");
}

Here's a screenshot of how SDK will look after setting the language to French.

Setting the SDK language for the given locale with both language code and country code.

HelpshiftSdk.GetInstance().SetSDKLanguage("zh-SG");

Note

The default language is set to English (en) i.e. if you don't set any language using the SetSDKLanguage API, SDK will use English as language.
