UI customization is controlled by the presence of a "BrandingInfo.json" file. The file's location is the Configuration subfolder, located in the folder identified by the Data Path setting in the Historian Server configurator.

To configure customized label color settings:

  1. Launch the configurator, and select the Historian Server node. Note the location specified by the Data Path setting.

  2. Locate the folder named Configuration inside the folder identified by the Data Path setting. For example, if the Data Path is C:\Historian, then use the folder C:\Historian\Configuration.

  3. Create a text file in the Configuration folder, named BrandingInfo.json. Copy the following text into the file to use as a template:

    {

    "HeaderBackgroundColor": "#0F76C7",

    "HeaderForegroundColor": "#F4F4F4",

    "SiteTitle": "AVEVA Historian Client Web",

    "CompanyLogo": "/Images/AVEVA_Blue.svg",

    "CompanyLogo_Link": "https://www.AVEVA.com/",

    "InsightLogo": "/Images/wwo-logo-home.png",

    "Copyright": "Copyright © 2020 AVEVA Group plc and its subsidiaries.<br>All rights reserved."

    }

  4. Update the provided sample values with your own values as required:

    • HeaderBackgroundColor - This is the background color of the page header

    • HeaderForegroundColor - This is the text color of the page header

    • SiteTitle - This is the site title displayed in the page header

    • CompanyLogo - This is the path to the company logo

    • CompanyLogo_Link - This is the URL that is loaded when the company logo is clicked

    • InsightLogo - This is the path to the Insight logo displayed in the middle of the home/main page

    • Copyright - This is the copyright information that is displayed.

      Notes: A color value can be specified either as a name (ie. blue, red), or as a hexadecimal color code (ie. #0012FF, #E83311).

      The image files used for logos can be in either SVG or PNG file formats. Other file formats are incompatible.

      The paths specified for logo files are relative to the hosting directory path for Insight. The default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Wonderware\HistorianInsight\Server\wwwroot. For example, if the value for CompanyLogo is set to /Images/logo.png, then the image file should be located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Wonderware\HistorianInsight\Server\wwwroot\Images\logo.png.

  5. Save the file, and restart the AVEVA Historian Web Client service.

  6. After the service has restarted, refresh the AVEVA Historian Web Client home page to see your custom values applied.
