Changing Colours or adding a banner to WebUIs

Timo — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 06:45:45 GMT

Hey there,

we're running CDP Private Cloud Base in 7.1.9 in 4 different Stages (Lab, DEV, QA and Prod). Is it possible to add a banner in different colours to the different WebUIs so that we can always distinguish the stages well? Like changing the colours in Cloudera Manager?

Thanks and Regards,

Timo

Hello @Timo ,

Some WebUIs support this, but most do not. For example, Hue can have a custom banner and the steps to make that work are here: https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.9/administering-hue/topics/hue-add-custom-web-ui-banner.html.

Hope that helps,

Alex

@Timo Thank you for bringing this to our community.

You may follow @aakulov s' suggestion for Hue. However, if this ask is about Cloudera Manager UI, Please try the following:

For Cloudera Manager Custom Header Color
The custom header color is used to distinguish different instances of Cloudera Manager.
CM > Administration > Settings(Scope) > Custom Header Color

For Cloudera Manager Custom Banner Text
The custom banner is used to display customer specific text in the header area.
CM > Administration > Settings(Scope) > Custom Banner Text

Bonus:
For Cloudera Manager Custom Information Assurance Policy Text
An information assurance policy statement that must be agreed to in order for a user to login.
CM > Administration > Settings(Scope) > Custom Information Assurance Policy Text
