Hi,

In an indicator widget i want to add color scheme. If scores are less than 80% it should be shown in red if >80%should be shown in red.

From the docs i can see that it can be added to targets but i want to know if the same can be added to an indicator

Hi,

You’re reading the docs correctly — for Performance Analytics indicators, color logic is driven by thresholds (targets), not directly on the indicator widget itself.

In PA:

  • Indicators store the data

  • Targets / thresholds control the coloring

  • Widgets simply render based on those thresholds

How to do what you want

Create thresholds on the indicator:

  1. Open the Indicator record

  2. Go to Thresholds

  3. Add thresholds like:

    • < 80% → Red

    • ≥ 80% → Green (assuming that’s what you intended)

Once thresholds are defined:

  • Any Indicator widget using that indicator will automatically pick up the colors

  • No additional widget configuration is needed

What you can’t do

  • You can’t define conditional colors only at the widget level for indicators

  • Color schemes are not evaluated directly on the indicator score without thresholds
