Due to insufficient localization of the Perspective app, variable names referencing the table are not rewritten and cannot be customized.

Hello, thank you for making the useful software open source.

As the subject suggests, I would like to report a bug where some variables do not work in the Japanese environment when installing the Perspective app. Here are the reproducible steps:

  1. Create an environment with Japanese settings in PowerApps for Teams (create a new team).
  2. Install the Perspective app in this environment as instructed. At this point, the application works correctly.
  3. Open Power Apps Studio by following the steps for PowerApps > Build > Perspective App in Teams sidebar. At this stage, it can be confirmed that some variables are not working correctly.
  4. Even if I save without making any changes in step 3, it can be confirmed that it is not working correctly after deploying.

I have tried both installing as a custom app and importing as a solution, but in either method, variable names in Power Apps remain in English without being converted to Japanese, and the app does not work properly.
In addition, in the case of a custom app, some column names of tables, such as "Discussion Topics," also became Japanese.

The cause of this issue is believed to be that, even though the column names of the table are localized in Japanese by PowerApps, the variables in the Perspective app remain in English.
How can this problem be resolved? The following images are screenshots of each step.
