I have a panel (shown below) and I want to change its color. The panel is called Application Name and I want it to be purple. How do I do that?

In other words, I want "sad-api" to be purple not white.

If you're willing to try out Dashboard Studio, this is possible directly in the UI:

    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

By setting <panel id="X"> and defining a hidden row with some embedded CSS, the change is effected by the CSS

#app_name g.svg-label text {
  fill:#6a0dad !important;
}

where the #app_name line identifies your panel identifier and then set the appropriate colour code in the fill statement.

This is a common technique for playing around with Splunk dashboard styling - what you can do comes down to your skills with CSS

Hope this helps
