# Translate the Microsoft Teams manifest file

ServiceNow for Microsoft Teams supports localization to multiple languages, using UTF-8 for international characters.

You must activate the localized plugins in your instance. To install the language plugin, see [Activate a language](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-administration/t_ActivateALanguage.md).

After installing the language plugin, you must create and download the manifest file and upload the file to Microsoft Teams. To download the manifest file, refer [Create and download the manifest file for pre-published apps](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/employee-experience-foundation/download-manifest-file-mt.md).
