Localization

Last updated 7 November 2026

People in different locations write dates and times differently. For instance, in the United States, the month is typically written first, followed by the day, and then the year. Conversely, in Australia and the United Kingdom, the day is written first, followed by the month, and then the year.

Insites allows you to customize your localization settings according to your preferred date and time format for users within your Instance Admin. These customizations include your date format, time format and time zone. Additionally, you can use these localization settings as a foundation for implementing any specific logic on your Application as required.

To modify your localization settings:

  1. Navigate to Settings from the main menu.
  2. Select Localization.
  3. Select EDIT on the Display Format card (date and time format) or on the Instance Time Zone card (time zone).
  4. Make your changes. Field descriptions are elaborated in their dedicated section within this article.
  5. Click SAVE.
