Dashboard Color Template Matching

Please provide an option for users to save and reapply custom color schemes for tables and charts. Currently, we often have to manually copy hex codes from one element to another, which is tedious and error-prone—especially when working with a large number of dashboards.

Being able to store a color palette and apply it in one click would save significant time, ensure visual consistency across projects, and reduce repetitive manual work. This enhancement would be a tremendous productivity boost for teams managing multiple dashboards.

This is a great idea. Would be awesome to be able to use our org's theme in ArcGIS Dashboards too.

We found a way around this by using ArcGIS Assistant. You can do it by modifying JSON File of the dashboards if that helps anyone. It is not too complicated but having this ability to save themes or color. We also figured out a way to change source of data inside dashboards by using ArcGIS assistant. Hope this helps but Esri should really consider allowing users to change source natively inside dashboard without having to reconfigure all the colors, formatting etc.
