Considerations for Upgrade
Before upgrading ThingWorx Navigate, back up any localization tables that you have modified. After upgrade, reimport your localization tables.
Localization for Custom Tasks
Follow the above procedure only if you want to modify a label used in an out-of-the-box task. If you are building a custom task, do not use ThingWorx Navigate out-of-the-box localizations tokens. Instead, create your own localization tables and tokens.

To add localized text for many elements, you can export a localization table, add localized text to the exported XML file, and import the file.
For more information on how to create localization tables and tokens, refer to the following topics in the ThingWorx help center:
