I often use the Expression function in mashups to display a modified version of a property of a Thing.
For instance:
output = DeviceName + " Description"; //DeviceName is a String Parameter
I am trying to add localization to my mashups and would like to be able to use a token for the " Description" text. How can I do this?.
@Timo697 You can try defining a session parameter with a default value as 'Description' and then that variable will be accessible in the mashups in the Session tab where you can bind it to your expression's input parameter.
What would I set the Base Type as?
I set it to String then wrote a localization token into the Default Value: [[Test_Description]]
My code in the expression is now:
output = Device + " " + Description;
Now, the expression has an output of: Device [[Test_Description]]
