if its not filled through a binding you can probably adapt this to find everything across all your resources: > [@Export all component text used in Ignition](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/export-all-component-text-used-in-ignition/53668/4): > > Here is a script i used to automatically add all text values to the translate manager in perspective By checking the resource files… warning this may take a while xd import os import json from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway import IgnitionGateway from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway.script import GatewaySystemUtilities package = IgnitionGateway.get().getLocalizationManager().loadFullPackage() oldKeys = package.getAvailableKeys() context = IgnitionGateway.get() path… here it looks for text, but you could look for "label" too probably. > [@Export all component text used in Ignition](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/export-all-component-text-used-in-ignition/53668/4): > > `for x in json_extract(json.loads(open(root + '/view.json').read()), 'text'):` idk how table translation works though. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/language-translation-in-perspective-how-to-populate-all-translation-terms-in-a-dropdown/76120)._
