setting language for an user dynamically based on the parameters we passed to the portal via url.

[Community Alums]

Hi,

            I am building a portal by using "Ui builder" , where I had created a page where table , sysid are required parameters. 

Now, i need to change the language based on the field value which is fetched from  the  page parameter sysid record.

if the field value is "colmbia" , i need to change the language of the page to "spanish" , otherwise i need to keep english.

please suggest an approach!

User preferred language is stored in User Preference (sys_user_preference).

Hence, based on the field value, you would need to update or insert record in this table for Name field as 'user.language'.
