Localization
Instacart Connect supports the Accept-Language request HTTP header as described in RFC 7231. For example, your requests can specify a list of languages and you can add weights for resolving those languages.
Currently, the following locales are supported by Connect:
| Country | Supported Locales |
|---|---|
| United States | en-US (default) |
| Canada | en-CA (default), fr-CA |
The default locale for the country is used when Connect is unable to find a supported locale that matches a specified locale.
locale parameter
You can explicitly set a locale parameter when you create an order or a user. The locale parameter accepts one locale specified in IETF Language Tag format.
If the Accept-Language header is set and the request includes the locale parameter, the language specified in the locale parameter is used. For example, in all requests, the Accept-Language header is set to en-CA. When a customer wants to receive communications in French, the request to create a user account for that customer explicitly sets the locale parameter to fr-CA.
Currently, the following methods support the locale parameter:
