API 'DateFormula' responses should localize based on the 'Accept-Language' header or system defaults, not default to English.

Petar Mladenovic on 3/24/2025 8:24:17 AM

Issue: While API responses generally respect the Accept-Language header (e.g., localized enums), the DateFormula field remains exclusively in English.


Impact: Customers/localized workflows requiring multi-language chaining of API requests must manually convert DateFormula values (e.g., translating "D" to "T" for German days), adding complexity and error risk.


Examples:

  • German: 14D → 14T (Tage), 2Y → 2J (Jahre)
  • French: 14D → 14J (Jour), 2Y → 2A (Année)
