Service Now has made the Theme Color Generator only work for internal use

So Service Now made the color generator for internal use only. So with that is there any good alternatives to build out new themes for the next experience? Does anyone know why Service Now decided to do this?

 

In case you don't know what link I'm talking about it's this: https://theme.deoprototypes.com/color-generator-p/

I was wondering why it wasn't working anymore. That's so frustrating to say the least. To piggyback off of my comment on this post , I created a simple utility to set the theme in Polaris /Next Experience.  Still trying to get a feel for whether or not this will be of value for people. If people think it'll be useful, I'll add some more features and publish it to the ServiceNow share

 

Thank you for letting me know about this. Please let me know when you get this published. Would it be possible to build it so that I can build multiple themes and users can choose which one they would like to use?

I'll try to get this published one day this week. I'll let you know once it's published. Currently, what I have built so far only allows you to configure one system theme. I modeled it after the "Basic Configurations UI16"

 

I'm waiting on a reply on that other post to see if ServiceNow is indeed publishing a Branding Manager, which should allow us to easily configure multiple themes. If it's going to be a long wait for SN's solution then I will create my own add on for this.

Hi @Mr_SeriousBusin,

I published v1 to the ServiceNow share

https://developer.servicenow.com/connect.do#!/share/contents/2483566_polarisnext_experience_theme_ge...

 

v1 is very basic and only creates one theme variant. I'm working on v2 which will be more robust.
