  1. Open the navigation menu  and select Identity & Security. Under Identity, select Domains.
  2. Click the name of the identity domain that you want to work in. You might need to change the compartment to find the domain that you want.
  3. Select Settings and then select Domain settings.
  4. Set the locale as follows:.
    • To specify a default time zone, from the Time zone settings list, select a time zone.
    • To specify a default language, from the Language settings list, select a language.
      Important

      Choose the language of the target audience. Don't choose a country-specific language unless you are targeting a specific country. For example, choose French to display the text to all users who speak French. Choose French (Canada) to display the text to users who speak Canadian French but not to other French-speaking users..
  5. Select Save changes.
