apidash Adding color support for environments

Tell us about the task you want to perform and are unable to do so because the feature is not available

When a new environment is created it can be assigned a color. This color can be used to highlight the environment name in the dropdown when the user is switching the environment.

For example, user can assign the color RED for prod env & GREEN for dev env.

@shashank-lol where are you selecting the color?

Nov 12 '25 23:11 animator

When adding a new env, a color is automatically assigned to the env, the user can then change it by clicking on the 3 dot menu, Currently I only have added 8 color options to choose from.

@shashank-lol I will recommend not to assign colors randomly and make the option to choose color more prominent instead of hiding it under 3 dots.

Nov 14 '25 15:11 animator

So should i add a default color that will be assigned whenever a new env is created or when the user creates a new env i should let him select a color there itself (in this case i feel i should ask the user to choose a name for the env also instead of assigning untitled)

For changing colors i can add the functionality to click on the color dot and change the color from there
