Hi, 

We would like to change the OOTB background picture of the back-office and replace it with a custom picture. How is it possible to do this ? (our version in Washington)

Thanks & regards.

Céline.

Your answer is here: https://www.servicenow.com/community/now-platform-forum/ui-builder-unable-to-set-a-custom-background...

 

P.S. Tried to figure this out on my own in my PDI and went nearly crazy!

Tested the steps in my PDI, it works (even though the comments in the other article don't say so)

Before you begin, you need to go to the UI Builder for your workspace and you might have to create a variant of your home page, just so you can edit the background.

Here are the screenshots of what to do next:

 

1. Identify the component from the UI

2. Open to the Background settings

3. Identify the value in the Image attribute:

4. Copy the source URL value and search for it in the Images (db_image) table:

So now you know where the background image comes from and how it's wired to the workspace... Just change the Image attribute, and you now have a new image.
