    NOTE

    • When a glossary term is added under "All," you cannot add it at the language level

    For example, if you wish to add the glossary term "TXT record" in multiple languages, add language-specific glossary terms and definitions in each language. When you add that glossary term under Global, it cannot be added at the language level.
