  this is possible and the errors are already localized i believe

  
  

  
  

  @dribbens will have detail there on how this is accomplished, but regardless, we need to get this in the docs

  Yeah, the trick to remember here is that the

  locale

  param refers to the language for the data being accessed, but instead you're looking to set the

  Accept-Language

  on the request header. That is used to tell Payload what language the user expects.

  
  

  More info on the header can be found here:

  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Accept-Language
  

  
  

  You can see it in action from the admin UI if you change your language in the account settings and then look at your http requests Headers:

  
  

  
  

  I hope this helps you @zakoul
