Ability to localize drilled through view

We crated a PAW book that can drill through to another view getting a records from ODBC DB using MDX like: "select aaa, bbb from table".

On that view, we'd like to use localize caption so that caption can be changed depending on the language configured on a browser.

    Thank you for providing additional details about this request. This is not something that we will consider as fa future enhancements. Our current focus for enhancements to drill through is support for MDX based views as a drill target in TM1. It's not possible to pass the users language through a TI process. However, you could expose a TM1 cube to users that allows them to set a language preference and lookup that language preference in the prolog of your TI code.

    Yes, ODBC drill throughs only.


    I could change column name dynamically like:

    SLECT aaa AS ?p_aaa? from table

    AND in the prolog section of the drill TI process, p_aaa = '"XXX"'.


    But, I don't have any idea to get user language configuration on a browser in TI process.

    Can you please confirm if this requirement is specific to ODBC drill throughs?

    I do not believe it's possible to name the results of a SQL query. Cube views in TM1 can be localized and the localization can be set dynamically in the prolog section of the drill TI process.
