# Colors

## Colors in Tables and Groups

Simply adopt the design and colors of your monday.com board in your reports and create a better overview through a uniform design.

Not only does it sound fantastic, it's also super easy!

## Output colors on your documents

Your colors will automatically be adopted from the settings in your board and displayed on your document via a placeholder. If you use purple, your document will also be colored purple. Do you prefer green? Then we output green. You are free to choose.

Hardly see any difference here? Then we have reached our goal!

### **Group colors**

To display the colors of your groups on your document, you need to add this placeholder to your template:

**`{{Name | GroupColor}}`**

The colored stripe on the side can be displayed with this placeholder:

### **Status color**

To display the colors of your status on your document, you need to add this placeholder to your template:

**`{{NameOfStatusColumn | WithColor}}`** *e.g.* **`{{Status | WithColor}}`**

**Note:** Please exchange "NameOfStatusColumn" with the name of your column. If you want to learn more about placeholders, [please visit our help center](/getting-started/welcome.md).

### Status column placeholders color

Replace 'Status' with the actual title of your status column. If your column title is 'Project Phase', the placeholder would be **`{{Project Phase}}`**

* **`{{Status}}`** -> Label of your status column (e.g. Done or Stuck)
* **`{{Status | WithColor}}`** -> Label with background highlight
* **`{{Status | WithTextColor}}`** -> Label with text color from status label (e.g. <mark style="color:green;">**Done**</mark> or <mark style="color:red;">**Stuck**</mark>)
