Modifying UI Text

This content applies solely to Award Management, which must be purchased separately from the Appian base platform. This content was written for Appian 24.1 and may not reflect the interfaces or functionality of other Appian versions.

Introduction

Appian stores certain UI text for AM's interfaces in bundle files, including:

Labels
Validation Messages
Button Labels
Tooltips
Instructional text

To update this UI text, you must modify the bundle file associated with it.

Note that some UI text is contained in reference data tables, such as dropdown lists. To modify this type of UI text, see Modifying Dropdown Lists.

Award Management bundle files

There are two bundle files included in the solution: AS.AM.General and AS.AM.TMG. The AS AM Properties Files folder in the AS AM Knowledge Center stores the AS.AM.General bundle file, which is for the Award Management site. While the AS AM TMG Internationalization Files folder in the AS AM TMG Knowledge Center stores the AS.AM.TMG.Tasks_en_US, which is for the Award Management Settings site.

These bundle files can be used to update labels, button labels, tooltips, or instructions.

Updating bundle files

To update the bundle files:

In Appian Designer, find and download the bundle file document you need to update.
- If you are modifying UI text in the Award Management site, download the AS.AM.General file.
- If you are modifying UI text in the Award Management Settings site, download the AS.AM.TMG.Tasks_en_US file.
Find the value that you want to update. If the value is not listed in this document, you will need to update the interface directly.
In Appian Designer, upload the updated bundle file document. For instructions, see adding new document versions.
