Compatible Languages for Decipher + Kinesis Surveys

Overview

It is possible for Kinesis customers to include multiple languages in a survey that uses both KinesisPanel (KP) and Decipher. If a selected language is available for both Kinesis and Decipher, it is sent from Kinesis via the survey URL, populated in the survey for each panelist, and then sent back to Kinesis as the panelists' default language.

Note: Some survey languages are not compatible for both Decipher and Kinesis. If an incompatible language is set in the survey, it will only be applied there and not shared with Kinesis. See below for a full list of Decipher-only languages.

How it Works

If your KP panel allows multiple languages and you expect to display your Decipher survey in a language other than English, you will need to add the corresponding Decipher language code(s) to your project. This can be done using the Language Manager within Decipher.

Once each language code is added within the Language Manager, the survey link will automatically append a Decipher language (decLang) variable for each language based on its mapping to KP languages. If a panelist's language is not supported within Decipher, the default survey language will be used instead.

 

The table below lists all of the languages available for mapping within a survey using both KP and Decipher.

Note: Languages in red do not have a matching language within Decipher. For these, you will need to select the default language and translate all text within the Decipher survey.

Decipher-Only Languages

Languages that are available in Decipher but not in Kinesis will not change a panelist's language in Kinesis. Instead, they will be set as English (not the panel's default language) for the panelist.

The following Decipher languages do not have an equivalent in KinesisPanel:

• Azerbaijani
• Khmer
• Swahili
• Tagalog
