Supported methods and overview

  • PUT - sets a supported locale as the SafeShare administrator’s default locale.

​
Detailed description

This API endpoint sets a supported locale as the SafeShare administrator’s default locale. This is equivalent to setting the System Default language through the Internationalisation page of SafeShare Administration. The SafeShare administrator’s default locale serves a number of purposes:
  • This locale (and language) is the default used for the Cocoon Data Sign-in page, Cocoon Data email notifications and the SafeShare Administration, Organisation Administration and SafeShare for Web user interfaces.
  • This is the initial locale used for all newly created Cocoon Data users.
  • When a custom locale without an existing internationalisation (i18n) bundle is deleted, any Cocoon Data users utilising this locale (which they would have chosen through SafeShare) will automatically be reverted to use this SafeShare administrator’s default locale.
