AWI Management: Theming

As an administrator, you can customize the appearance of your AWI instance on the AWI Management > Theming page in the Administration perspective. You can define the color and the logo configuration in Client 0 to apply these settings to the entire system.

Color Configuration

In Theme Color Configuration you determine the AWI color for all the Clients in your system.

  • Set Theme Color

    Select the background color that will be displayed to highlight what the user has selected (a user interface element, an object or a task in a list, any record in a table, and so on). You can use the theme color to reflect your company brand.

  • Set Connection Color

    Enter the hexadecimal/HTML codes for the set of colors that will be available in the Connection Color dropdown list. This is the list where users select the color that they want to assign to a connection. Connection colors help users easily identify the Clients they are logged into. All windows and tabs that belong to a connection use the same color.

In on-prem systems you can configure AWI's theme color here or in the colors.properties configuration file. The AWITheming page and the colors.properties file are synchronized. This means that any change on this page will be reflected in the colors.properties and vice versa.

Logo Configuration in On-Prem Systems

You can set the custom logo either through the user interface of through environment variables.

Configuring the Logo Through AWI

  1. In Client 0, open the Administration perspective and go to AWIManagement > Theming.

  2. In Theme Logo Configuration do one the following:

    • Select the Default Logo option to use the default CA Automic logo.
    • Select the Custom Logo option to upload and use your own logo:
      • Click the arrow symbol.
      • Open the desired image file and confirm.

      Tip: Use a PNG file no larger than 96 px wide and 70 px high.

      With custom logos you can specify a background color logo. Select Dark or White in the drop down beside Background Color. The drop down is grayed out if you have selected the default logo option.

Configuring the Logo Using Environment Variables

  1. Specify the image by adding and configuring one of the following variables:

    • AUTOMIC_LOGO_BASE64

      Use this variable to set the image by providing the corresponding text in BASE64 format.

    • AUTOMIC_LOGO_FILENAME

      Add this variable and specify the logo file name and its location.

  2. Specify the MIME type.

    Add and configure AUTOMIC_LOGO_MIMETYPE variable for image types other than .PNG.

Logo Configuration in AAKE Systems

In AAKE systems you set the logo using environment variables. For details about how to configure it, see Configuring Container-Based Systems.
