JSON theme within Mashup

eftrotter — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 14:39:44 GMT

Hi Qlikers,

I'm working to create a templatized mashup where the colors can be edited from one set of variables, and have the updates apply to the CSS and theme.

I've created a theme via https://sensetheme.com/ and uploaded the JSON to the mashup editor. How do I reference the theme within the JSON to get it to apply?

I've tried within the Javascript&colon; qlik.theme.apply('\theme.json'); but no luck.

Is what I'm trying to do possible and if so what is the best way of going about it.

Let me know if I can provide any additional details.

Hi,

Are you trying it with custom themes extension?

When your theme is ready you will have to import it to QMC> extension and then you will be able to use it from your App

Thank you

Hi Christopher,

I would like to be able to add variables to the theme and update the colors as I update the mashup. I don't believe this is possible if I upload it to the qmc.

Please let me know if I'm incorrectly interpreting your suggestion.
