These are the docs for the Metabase master branch. Some features documented here may not yet be available in the latest release. Check out the docs for the latest version, Metabase v0.51.
Embedded analytics SDK - appearance
⚠️ This feature is in beta. Feel free to play around with it, but be aware that things might change (and may not work as expected).
Embedded analytics SDK is only available on Pro and Enterprise plans (both self-hosted and on Metabase Cloud). You can, however, play around with the SDK on your local machine without a license by using API keys to authenticate your embeds.
You can style your embedded Metabase components with a theme.
Here’s an example that includes the various styling options available:
import {defineEmbeddingSdkTheme} from "@metabase/embedding-sdk-react";
const theme = defineEmbeddingSdkTheme({
// Specify a font to use from the set of fonts supported by Metabase.
// You can set the font to "Custom" to use the custom font
// configured in your Metabase instance.
fontFamily: "Lato",
// Override the base font size for every component.
// This does not usually need to be set, as the components
// inherit the font size from the parent container, such as the body.
fontSize: "16px",
// Override the base line height for every component.
lineHeight: 1.5,
// Match your application's color scheme
colors: {
// The primary color of your application
brand: "#9B5966",
// The color of text that is most prominent
"text-primary": "#4C5773",
// The color of text that is less prominent
"text-secondary": "#696E7B",
// The color of text that is least prominent
"text-tertiary": "#949AAB",
// Default background color
background: "#FFFFFF",
// Slightly darker background color used for hover and accented elements
"background-hover": "#F9FBFC",
// Muted background color used for disabled elements, such as disabled buttons and inputs.
"background-disabled": "#F3F5F7",
// Color used for borders
border: "#EEECEC",
// Color used for filters context
filter: "#7172AD",
// Color used for aggregations and breakouts context
summarize: "#88BF4D",
// Color used to indicate successful actions and positive values/trends
positive: "#BADC58",
// Color used to indicate dangerous actions and negative values/trends
negative: "#FF7979",
/** Color used for popover shadows */
shadow: "rgba(0,0,0,0.08)",
// Overrides the chart colors. Supports up to 8 colors
// Limitation: this does not affect charts with custom series color
charts: [
// can either be a hex code
"#9B59B6",
// or a color object. tint and shade represents lighter and darker variations
// only base color is required, while tint and shade are optional
{ base: "#E74C3C", tint: "#EE6B56", shade: "#CB4436" },
],
},
components: {
// Dashboard
dashboard: {
// Background color for all dashboards
backgroundColor: "#2F3640",
card: {
// Background color for all dashboard cards
backgroundColor: "#2D2D30",
// Apply a border color instead of shadow for dashboard cards.
// Unset by default.
border: "1px solid #EEECEC",
},
},

// Background color for all questions
backgroundColor: "#2D2D30",
},
// Data table

cell: {
// Text color of cells, defaults to `text-primary`

// Default background color of cells, defaults to `background`
backgroundColor: "#FFFFFF",
// Font size of cell values, defaults to ~12.5px
fontSize: "12.5px",
},
idColumn: {
// Text color of ID column, defaults to `brand`

// Background color of ID column, defaults to a lighter shade of `brand`
backgroundColor: "#F5E9EB",
},
},
// Number chart
number: {
// Value displayed on number charts.
// This also applies to the primary value in trend charts.
value: {
fontSize: "24px",
lineHeight: "21px",
},
},
// Cartesian chart
cartesian: {
// Padding around the cartesian charts.
// Uses CSS's `padding` property format.
padding: "4px 8px",
},
// Pivot table
pivotTable: {
cell: {
// Font size of cell values, defaults to ~12px
fontSize: "12px",

// Pivot row toggle to expand or collapse row
rowToggle: {

expandButton: {
textColor: "#8118F4",
backgroundColor: "#767D7C",
hoverTextColor: "#CE8C8C",
hoverBackgroundColor: "#69264B",
},
},
},
// Popover are used in components such as click actions in interactive questions.
popover: {
// z-index of the popover. Useful for embedding components in a modal. defaults to 4.
zIndex: 4,
},
},
});
Customizing loader and error components
You can provide your own components for loading and error states by specifying loaderComponent
and errorComponent
in the config.
import { defineEmbeddingSdkConfig } from "@metabase/embedding-sdk-react";
const config = defineEmbeddingSdkConfig({
loaderComponent: () => <div>Analytics is loading...</div>,
errorComponent: ({ message }) => <div>There was an error: {message}</div>,
});
