[JET.Settings] For the parameters "providerName" and "settingName", what is the full supported value

Hello, For the parameters "providerName" and "settingName", what is the full supported value list? Currently I don't know how to specify the two parameters to get the configuration "Theme and Colors" from Eikon Desktop. ------------------------------------- JET.Settings.read(function(value){ console.log(value); }, { providerName: "Configuration", settingName: "COMMON.RDE_PRODUCT.BRANDNAME" }) Thanks a lot in advance, Bo

  • According to JET Sample Pages, the only supported value for `providerName` is `"Configuration"`. To find out available `settingName` values, I normally dump Eikon Desktop configuration to get setting keys and values. To do that, please see [How to Dump the Eikon configuration][1]. And the relavant setting keys seems to be:

    Charcoal

  • If the original purpose was to determine which theme Eikon is using, I believe this may be a moot point. Albert Lojko made a decision that strategically going forward Eikon will only provide charcoal theme. See
    https://thehub.thomsonreuters.com/message/271397 Many people tried to challenge this decision, but I don't believe any challenge was successful. I believe the direction is that for the purpose of creating new apps we should be using the new visual signature mentioned in the link above disregard of the theme user may have currently, as the themes will eventually be removed.
