Modern cell coloring

Hi developers, for change request approval tab can this modern cell coloring be done for all users ?

But I want to make unclick "Modern Cell Coloring" checkbox in the change form for all users. How can I handle this?

Though unchecking modern cell coloring works but it has to be done for all users in each instance so if a script does ?

If so appreciate if you could guide me, Thankss

@Ankur Bawiskar , @Karan Chhabra6 any suggestions. Thanks.

The setting for modern cell coloring is a user preference. You can add a new user preference record with no user value to set it as the default value, and you can delete any other preference records, but you users can still override the value with their own preferences. The only way to block users from setting the preference (that I know of) would be a business rule on the user preference table to prevent users from creating their own preference.

No, in the case where you want to let people set their own value, you would not need to block any new preferences.

@John Dahl : Thanks john for the response.

Can we make this setting applicable only to particular table and modern cell coloring is applicable to all tables?

@servicenow14710 , sorry for the late response... I do not get notified about posts.

The preference is user-specific, but applies to all tables unfortunately.

Good luck!
