Prerequisites
- An organization on while, where you are an owner or admin.
- For while to suggest the logo and the color: your company’s domain, proven by its company sign-in.
Step 1: Take the logo and color from your website
In Organization settings, under Branding, click “Suggest from” your domain. while fetches the logo and the color of your website and shows them under “Found on your site”. Apply sets them; nothing changes before your click.
Would you rather choose them yourself? “Change”, on the Logo row, opens two slots, “On a light background” and “On a dark background”: a PNG of 256 KiB at most, or an SVG of 100 KiB at most. “Choose”, on the Color row, opens the swatches. while works out the color of the text placed on it, white or black, so that it stays readable.
Step 2: Or ask your agent
You, to your agent: Take the logo and the color from our website for our apps.
Your agent takes the same path with the MCP tool update_organization_settings: branding_from to read what your
website suggests, then logo, logo_dark and accent_color to set it. It is an administration action: at the Read
and act level, your agent asks for your approval, and you confirm in one click. get_organization, with the
branding view, reads back what is set.
Through the API: GET and PUT /v1/teams/{organisation}/branding, and POST /v1/teams/{organisation}/branding/suggestion
for the suggestion.
What your teams see
Set once, the logo and the color go everywhere your teams go:
- The apps page, “Your apps at” your organization: your logo at the top, and the icon of each app, which while picks up when the app goes live. An app without an icon gets its letter on your color. With a star, each person puts their favorite apps first; from six apps on, a search finds them.
- The while console: your logo at the top left.
- The door of your internal apps: “Continue to” the app, with your logo and the button in your color. Someone who doesn’t have access yet sees your logo, and “Request access” in your color.
- The invitation email: your logo above the title.
Everyone’s photo
Each person’s photo comes from your company sign-in (Google, Microsoft Entra, Okta or another OpenID Connect provider), picked up at each sign-in. while keeps it and serves it itself, without sending anyone to the provider. Without a company photo, each person adds their own in My account, with “Add a photo”: a PNG, a JPEG or a WebP of 5 MB at most. Otherwise, their initial.
The photo shows in the console’s bar, in Team and in the activity log.
