Smartsheet Bridge Dark Mode

Smartsheet Bridge is a workflow and integration platform with its own dedicated interface for building and managing automation workflows that connect Smartsheet to external systems. Bridge runs in a separate application context and its interface is entirely light-themed, so Bridge users who work in dark mode elsewhere are interrupted by a bright screen every time they open it.

Without Grid Tools

The daily workaround

Bridge workflow editor stays bright: The Bridge workflow canvas, step palette, and configuration panels all use the default light colour scheme with no dark option.
Log and run-history screens are bright too: The Bridge execution log and run-history views, which Bridge users consult frequently for troubleshooting, are also light-themed.
Bright context disrupts dark-mode sessions: Switching from dark-mode Smartsheet sheets or reports into Bridge immediately presents a fully bright interface.
No Bridge appearance setting: Bridge has no built-in theme or appearance control of any kind, leaving users with no option to reduce brightness natively.

With Grid Tools

How Grid Tools handles it

Dark theme on Bridge workflow canvas: Grid Tools applies dark mode styling to the Bridge workflow editor canvas so the workflow building environment matches the dark theme used elsewhere.
Step and config panels in dark mode: The step palette and individual step configuration panels in Bridge also receive dark styling for a consistent editing experience.
Log and run-history views darkened: Execution log and run-history screens in Bridge are styled in dark mode, making troubleshooting runs easier on the eyes during long sessions.
Single toggle covers all areas: Bridge dark mode activates with the main Grid Tools dark mode switch alongside all other supported Smartsheet areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is Smartsheet Bridge?

Bridge is Smartsheet's integration and workflow automation platform for connecting Smartsheet to external systems and services using a visual no-code workflow builder.

Does Bridge dark mode cover the workflow canvas and the configuration panels?

Yes. Grid Tools applies dark styling to the workflow canvas, the step palette, individual step configuration panels, and the execution log and run-history views.

Does Bridge dark mode require a separate toggle from the main dark mode?

No. It is activated by the same Grid Tools dark mode toggle that covers sheets, reports, and other supported Smartsheet areas. No additional setup is needed.

Does dark mode affect Bridge integrations or workflow execution?

No. Dark mode is a visual styling change applied by the Grid Tools browser extension. It has no effect on workflow logic, trigger conditions, integrations, or execution behaviour in Bridge.
