Hi Joanna, and thanks for the question!

There is an ongoing initiative to be able to change the Active Language within Services (from [this request](https://community.appfarm.io/t/change-language-on-enums-in-services/1979/3)) which has a current estimate of availability after the summer.

In the meantime, could a possible setup be to translate the Enum values in the app using inbuilt language handling, and then to pass the translated value(s) to the service as a string, for instance?

Rhys
