Hi,
Can somebody help me understand the structure of the UI Builer's menu, header and footer?
I found some examples like this: https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=a42b8d1adb1fe810ab0202d5ca9619cb
Or this: https://codecreative.io/notebook/ui-builder-create-footer/
But I would need more information. Eg:
- How can you add a dynamic link to the menu (eg to profile)
- Is there a documentation of these attributes so that I can understand them more and maybe add different ones?
- How can I add some formatted text to the footer and not links?
- Generally speaking how can I add styling to these elements? How do I know what class (eg "now-color--secondary-0") my element has and how do I know if changing that will have an effect somewhere else on the page or not?
Thanks so much,
Aniko

Unfortunately, there isn't a ton of info out there yet on configuring things that come with the app shells like headers and footers, but here are some links that may help answer some of your questions:
- This is the best post I've seen on menus: UI Builder Menus
- Workspace Themes
- UI Builder Bytes - Theming
Some of this gets a little easier in the San Diego release.

Thanks for all the additional info.
I hope it'll get easier in the next releases.
