Quick Tip #7 - Change Chart Colors in Reports

Written by Caitlin Ankney | Jul 9, 2024 6:00:00 PM

Did you know you can customize the colors you see in your reports? You can set an entirely new color palette that matches your company’s brand or preferences, and you can also set colors for specific fields.

 

  1. Go to Reports -> Settings -> Color Palette Settings
  2. Select the Custom Theme option
  3. Click on each color to change it to your preferred color. Gainsight will use these colors in reports chronologically from left to right, so you will see the first color most frequently.

 

  1. Go to Reports -> Settings -> Custom Colors
  2. Click Map Colors and find the field you want to customize
  3. Choose colors for specific values
    For example, if you have a boolean field you can set colors for true, false, and null.

 

 

For dropdown lists, you can set default colors by going to Data Management -> Dropdowns and clicking on the dropdown name. You will see a Color that you can click on and change for each value
This is really helpful in situations where you use a dropdown in more than one field - for example, if you have a dropdown for Red/Yellow/Green, set the colors in the dropdown itself and those colors will appear for any field using the dropdown.
