Number and date formatting in Insights is based on the app language. For supported languages that use region-specific number and date formats (Arabic [Insights desktop only], English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish), the region is used to determine the default formats for numbers and dates. For Insights in ArcGIS Online and Insights in ArcGIS Enterprise, the region is based on the browser region. For Insights desktop, the region is based on the language and region specified in the App language user settings.

Note:

The following locales are not supported in Safari:

  • German (Switzerland)

Insights displays in a supported region with the same language when an unsupported locale is selected.
