How to Know the Language the Users Selected for Filtering Purposes

Buenos días, tengo una encuesta disponible en 3 idiomas: español, portugués e inglés. ¿Cómo puedo saber en qué idioma fue rellenado? Así puedo descartar de las distintas bases de datos para el reenvío.

Muchas gracias

Hi Monica,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

Now, coming back to your question, I understand that you want to know which language the user chose when filling out the form. You can add a Short Text field on the form and add a condition where the selected language will populate it. Let me show you how:

1. In Form Builder, add a Short Text field on the form.

2. In the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Settings.
3. Click on Conditions on the left side of the screen and select Update/Calculate Field condition.

4. Add these conditions:

Check out the screencast below for the result:

That's it. Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

Hola, Anna:

Gracias por tu ayuda, pero creo que no me expliqué bien. Ya envié mi formulario y he recibido algunas respuestas. Cuando descargo el reporte en Excel, quisiera saber en qué idioma se relleno cada encuesta.

Espero haberme explicado mejor.

Muchas gracias

Hi Monica,

Thanks for getting back to us. Unfortunately, this is not possible without the workaround that I provided you. Also, the workaround will only work on submissions that were submitted after applying it to the form.

Reach out again if there’s anything else we can help you with.
