Changing the Map Language

When creating a map, it's possible to control the displayed language. You can set this via the mapOptions, specifically by using the language option.

• JavaScript
• Twig
• PHP

// Set language to Japanese
const options = {
    'mapOptions': {
        'language': 'ja'
    }
};

// Create the map
const map = mapbox.map(locations, options);

With that in place, most text on the map will appear in your specified language...

Language Code Format

According to the Mapbox docs (opens new window), the language must be a BCP-47 language code (opens new window).
