Translating Drift

Drift’s Admin Panel and the majority of its features are currently hard-coded in English. However, we have started localization efforts for certain aspects of the platform and the user experience!

From your Drift Dashboard, head to Settings > Drift Widget > Design. Here, you will find the option to change your language for Drift’s localized features.

Here's what we've been working on!

1. The Chat Widget

-You can translate the Drift widget messaging that indicates agent status and status of the messages being sent and received.

2. The Bot Calendar Drop

-The Bot Calendar Drop which helps you book meetings is now localized to the language you set for Drift.

Keep in mind, the calendar card itself will be localized. If the bot is dropping the calendar in a playbook, the language surrounding the calendar card will still be in English.

What languages does Drift support currently for its translatable skills?

Here is a comprehensive list of all the current languages we support as of 2020:
