Is there a way to specify a language / locale to 'Convert to other formats' Graph API call?

Hi,

I'm using Graph API to convert XLS documents into PDFs.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/driveitem-get-content-format?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http#format-options

Whenever the Excel file contains cells with a number, the resulting PDF will use the English number format (e.g., a dot for decimal and a comma for thousands).

In German, they'd be the other way around (comma for decimal and dot for thousands).

I've tried to determine whether the Accept-Language header would make a difference to the transformation call, but no luck.

Is it possible to specify a transformation locale, or am I missing some setting in the Excel sheet (Aside from making the numbers a String)?

    Hello @Oliver Rau ,

    driveitem-get-content-format can download word, excel, files into PDF format. But right now, there is no such feature to convert to specific language/locale.

    You may suggest this on graph feedback portal.

    Hope this helps.
