The color picker column allows you to pick specific colors on a board to help maintain consistency throughout the board's design. Our API partially supports this column, so you can read the color picker column via the API but cannot update it.

Reading the color picker column

You can return the data in a color picker column in two different formats. The text field will return the data as a simple string that displays the HEX code for the color selected in the column. The value field will return the data as a JSON string that shows metadata about the color picker column.

{
  "value": "{\"color\":{\"hex\":\"#61b927\",\"hsl\":{\"a\":1,\"h\":96.2014751552795,\"l\":0.43990062366832383,\"s\":0.6484224082421121},\"hsv\":{\"a\":1,\"h\":96.2014751552795,\"s\":0.78671875,\"v\":0.7251420454545454},\"rgb\":{\"a\":1,\"b\":39,\"g\":185,\"r\":97},\"oldHue\":96.2014751552795,\"source\":\"rgb\"},\"changed_at\":\"2022-08-05T12:00:00.000Z\"}",
  "text": "#61b927"
}
