“Hi Community team,

 I need help converting the tab labels like **Threat Assessment** and **Reporting** (shown on a ServiceNow form/section) into **French**.
 When I switch the language to French, these tab captions are still showing in English.
 Could someone guide me where to configure translations for these tab names and any related UI text?

 “Please advise:
 Which component is responsible for these tab titles (Dictionary/LABELs, Message Catalog, Form labels, Section titles, Client script, UI Macro, etc.)?
 How to add French translations specifically for those tab labels.
 How to test to confirm the translation is working (cache/session/global vs scoped updates).

 “Details:
 Product/Environment: ServiceNow (UI form/section with tabs)
 Goal: Tab captions to display in French instead of English
 Any relevant table/record/form: x_enig_omb_case”

 **Quick one-liner question to end**
-“Which exact place in ServiceNow should I edit to translate only these tab captions into French?”
