Lightning themes and branding
Key Takeaway
A branded look usually means creating a custom theme and activating it. Your org can have only one active theme at a time, and that theme applies to the entire org.
A theme is a collection of visual styles, such as colors, logos and images, that sets the look and feel of Lightning Experience for your users. An app builder can activate a built-in Salesforce theme or create a custom theme that matches the company brand, all with clicks in Setup. Themes are built on the Salesforce Lightning Design System (SLDS). Whether a theme uses SLDS 1 or SLDS 2 decides which customizations are available.
Where you manage themes
You manage themes in Setup under "Themes and Branding". To get there, enter Themes and Branding in the Quick Find box. You need the "Customize Application" permission to create, edit, preview or activate a theme.
Themes are available in Lightning Experience in these editions:
- Group
- Essentials
- Professional
- Enterprise
- Performance
