Adding a Name in the Menu Bar

From Arc v1.10, you can display a custom server label in the Arc menu bar. This helps developers instantly identify which environment they are working in (e.g. Development, UAT, Production) without checking the URL.

Configuration

Open settings.yml in the Arc installation directory and add the following parameters:

# A name to display in the menu bar serverlabel: development # A colour for the server label (hex colour code) serverlabelcolor: "#f5c311"

Save the file and refresh your browser — the label and colour will appear in the Arc menu bar immediately.

development, production, UAT

Hex colour code for the label background or text

Use Cases

  • Multi-environment teams: Label each Arc server (Dev, UAT, Prod) with a distinct colour so developers always know which environment they are editing.

  • Shared servers: When multiple teams share an Arc instance, a visible label prevents accidental edits in the wrong environment.
