Message Cards in Multi-lingual Chats

In a multi-lingual chat, message card content is locale-specific:

  • Text cards: Message text is locale-specific. Enter different text per locale.

  • Image cards: The image file and alt text are locale-specific. You can upload different images for different locales or use the same image with different alt text.

  • Video cards: The video URL/file is locale-specific. You can set different videos for different locales.

  • Global settings: Full-screen toggle, Watermark, URL button, and Pause button are global - they apply to all locales.

When you add a message card in one locale, it appears in all locales at the same position. Switch to each locale to enter the locale-specific content.
