How to install Power BI theme files

Out-of-box Power BI Themes

Customizing a Power BI Theme

Option 1: Use the new theme editor (recommended)

To use the new theme editor, first load the theme you want to edit and then select: "Home" > "Switch Theme" > "Customize current theme"

Note: As of the time of this publish, the Theme Editor feature is in preview. To enable the preview feature, select: "File" > "Options and Settings" > "Options" > "Preview features" > "Customize current theme".

Option 2: Edit the JSON file (advanced)

The suggested tool for editting the JSON files is VS Code. The VS Code Color Picker extension (lihui.vs-color-picker) makes it easy to select new colors while editing, and the Color Highlight extension (naumovs.color-highlight) automatically highlights hex code values in json in the color that was chosen.
