Hi, 

 

I am new to CSS for creating Dashboard in Splunk Enterprise.😅

I want to create a table type panel in a dashboard with background color as blue. But after applying css, I am unable to assign different color to different values in a column of table. 

For instance:

Table A

Column1 Column2 Column3

A                  ball            date1

B                   bat           date2

 

I  want to color all "ball" in column2  as green and bat as red after changing background as Blue for table.
Please help

        <format type="color">
          <colorPalette type="expression">case (match(value,"bat"), "#ff0000",match(value,"ball"),"#00ff00",true(),"#000080")</colorPalette>
        </format>

And remove !important from the background

I tried this but somehow it is not reflected correctly. 
If I remove !important from background color, that css color is not reflected on table.
