The ServiceNow® Theme Builder application enables you to tailor the visual experience for your users, helping to update the look and feel to be more like your brand. Theme Builder was enhanced and updated in the Vancouver release.
Theme Builder highlights for the Vancouver release
- Auto-generate theme and style records as you define your brand colors, logo, typography, and corner shapes within the application, instead of hand-writing JSON to edit styles.
- Change global theme styles and automatically update theme records as you refine your theme.
- Safely preview changes made to your theme within the application before applying to your instance.
- Apply, duplicate, and delete themes for all your experiences in one location.
See Exploring themes in Next Experience for more information.
Important: Theme Builder is available in the ServiceNow Store. For details, see the "Activation information" section of these release notes.
New in the Vancouver release
- Color choice suggestions are provided when themes are changed or overridden
- Users are alerted when they change or override web or mobile themes in Theme Builder using custom styles, particularly when the primary color doesn't meet specific CAD specifications. Theme Builder provides prescriptive suggestions for improving color choices in the Color Picker.
- Preview alternate color palettes for themes
- Create as many alternate color palettes as you want. Alternate color palettes can be managed and previewed in user preferences.
- Preview components in themes
- Quickly view a graphical list of all of the components as they would look in your theme, or filter the list to view specific types of components. Alternate background colors can be selected so you can verify how they render in your instance
