Is there any way to color the VTB Cards background in the VTB Board based on certain conditions?

Hi there,

 

Depends a bit what you mean with on certain conditions. Out-of-the-box basically: no. Though you could get creative, by changing the background color scripted, business rule/flow/etc.. Ofcourse that does apply to all users of that specific board.

 

Kind regards,

@Mark Roethof but how can i change that

It concerns table "vtb_board" and field "background_color".

 

So query for the board that you are after and update the color. For example using Flow Designer, zero code needed.

 

Kind regards,

Hi @Alon Grod ,

 

In General:- https://www.servicenow.com/community/spm-blog/changing-the-appearance-of-your-visual-task-boards/ba-...

 

Based on Specific condition- 

For condition-based coloring, you would need to use scripting, such as a Business Rule or Flow Designer, to apply styles or set colors via DOM manipulation for advanced users
