The color settings and logo branding that you apply will be displayed in the Smartsheet application, as well as in email messages sent out from Smartsheet.

Changing colors and logo will not retroactively apply to previously existing Smartsheet items or items for which you are not the Owner. See Global Account Settings for information on applying colors and logo for everyone.

Smartsheet with Custom ColorsColor and logo changes also apply to any sheet, report, and dashboard that is not in a workspace.

Brand the application for your entire organization

  1. In the lower-left corner, select Account > Admin Center.
  2. On the Branding & Personalization tile, select:
    • Account Colors
    • Account Logo
    • Branding Lock: Branding lock prevents users from applying personal branding settings. 
  3. Select Save.

You can revert to the default Smartsheet settings at any time. 

For best practices about creating a logo for use in Smartsheet, see Create a Quality Logo to Brand Your Smartsheet Items.

Brand the application for yourself

  1. Select Account in the lower-left corner and select Personal Colors & Logo.
  2. Choose color settings for Background and Task Bar Color. Or, select a color theme. 
  3. Upload an image file of your custom logo. Keep in mind the supported file types and that your logo may be resized. 
  4. Select Save.

If your sysadmin has applied strict branding guidelines, you can not use custom colors or branding. 

Brand your Workspace 

Workspaces inherit org-level branding, not personal branding. Workspaces created after you set custom colors and logo branding inherit the new settings.

Existing workspaces need to be changed individually. If your sysadmin allows, you can brand individual workspaces, overwriting org-level branding. 

To brand a specific workspace: 

  1. Right-click on the workspace you want to brand.
  2. Select Workspace Colors & Logo.
  3. Choose color settings for Background and Task Bar Color. Or, select a color theme. 
  4. Upload an image file of your custom logo. Keep in mind the supported file types and that your logo may be resized. 
  5. Select Save.

Supported file types

  • PNG
  • GIF:  You can upload animated GIFs but they will not play in the grid. The initial frame is  the preview. Animation will play after you double-click the image in the grid.
  • JPG: JPGs in the RGB color space are supported (including your camera phone photos). Images in a CMYK color space targeted for print are not supported.
