NinjaOne WYSIWYG Fields

⚠️ Critical: HTML styling in WYSIWYG custom fields must be applied via the API or CLI. The NinjaOne console editor does not support inline styles, NinjaOne CSS classes, or any of the HTML patterns described in this skill. Always generate and write HTML content programmatically (e.g. via Set-NinjaProperty or the REST API).

NinjaOne WYSIWYG fields support HTML, inline styling, Font Awesome 6 icons, Charts.css for data visualization, and optional Bootstrap 5 grid layouts.

When to Use This Skill

Create visual status dashboards with cards and color-coded indicators
Format automation reports with tables, headings, and styled content
Display data visualizations using Charts.css (bar, line, pie, area charts)
Build responsive layouts using Bootstrap 5 grid system
Add Font Awesome icons for visual context and status indicators
Generate HTML reports from automation scripts
Create styled documentation with info cards and statistic displays

Prerequisites

Character Limit: Maximum 200,000 characters per field
Auto-Collapse: Fields > 10,000 characters collapse automatically
Field Limit: Maximum 20 WYSIWYG fields per form/template
Styling: HTML and inline styles must be applied via API or CLI — the NinjaOne console editor does not support styled HTML
Allowlist-Based: Only specific HTML elements and styles permitted
Editor: WYSIWYG editor available in NinjaOne console for Knowledge Base (Docs) only — not for custom fields

Related Skills

ninjaone-custom-fields - Use Set-NinjaProperty with -Type "WYSIWYG" to store HTML content
ninjaone-cli - Pipe large HTML content using CLI for fields > 10,000 characters
ninjaone-tags - Report device tags in formatted WYSIWYG status cards
ninjaone-script-variables - Configure report styling via script parameters

Allowed HTML Elements

<a>, <blockquote>, <caption>, <code>, <col>, <div>
<h1> - <h6>, <i>, <li>, <ol>, <p>, <pre>
<span>, <table>, <tbody>, <td>, <tfoot>, <th>, <thead>, <tr>, <ul>

Note: Most elements support NinjaOne CSS classes except <code> and <pre>.

NinjaOne CSS Classes

Card Width

NinjaOne's rendering context acts as a Bootstrap container, so row/col-* classes work directly inside WYSIWYG field content — no explicit <div class="container"> wrapper is needed or allowed.

For a single full-width card, wrap it in row → col-12 d-flex. The d-flex class is required to make flex-grow-1 work — without a flex parent, flex-grow-1 is ignored:

# Single full-width card
$html = @"
<div class="row"><div class="col-12 d-flex">
<div class="card flex-grow-1">
  <div class="card-title-box">
    <div class="card-title"><i class="fas fa-server"></i>&nbsp;&nbsp;Status</div>
  </div>
  <div class="card-body">
    Content here
  </div>
</div>
</div></div>
"@

For multiple cards side by side, use Bootstrap's grid inside the field (no container needed):

# Multi-card grid layout
$html = @"
<div class="row g-3">
  <div class="col-xl-6 col-md-12 d-flex">
    <div class="card flex-grow-1">...</div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-xl-6 col-md-12 d-flex">
    <div class="card flex-grow-1">...</div>
  </div>
</div>
"@

The card column span (how wide the form column itself is) is configured in the NinjaOne form/template editor and cannot be changed from script output.

Cards

# Standard card (use row/col-12 wrapper above for full-width)
$card = @"
<div class="card flex-grow-1">
  <div class="card-title-box">
    <div class="card-title"><i class="fas fa-server"></i>&nbsp;&nbsp;Server Status</div>
  </div>
  <div class="card-body">
    <p><b>Status:</b> Online</p>
  </div>
</div>
"@

# Card with action link
$cardWithLink = @"
<div class="card flex-grow-1">
  <div class="card-title-box">
    <div class="card-title">Title</div>
    <div class="card-link-box">
      <a href="https://example.com" target="_blank" class="card-link">
        <i class="fas fa-arrow-up-right-from-square"></i>
      </a>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="card-body">Content</div>
</div>
"@

Tables with Status

$table = @"
<table>
  <thead>
    <tr><th>Service</th><th>Status</th></tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr class="success"><td>Web Server</td><td>Running</td></tr>
    <tr class="danger"><td>Database</td><td>Stopped</td></tr>
    <tr class="warning"><td>Mail</td><td>Degraded</td></tr>
    <tr class="other"><td>Backup</td><td>Skipped</td></tr>
    <tr class="unknown"><td>Monitor</td><td>Unknown</td></tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
"@

Info Cards

Important: The <i class="info-icon ..."> element is a required structural part of the info-card component. Omitting it leaves a visual gap in the layout. Always include the icon.

# Informational (default — no modifier class)
$info = @"
<div class="info-card">
  <i class="info-icon fa-solid fa-circle-info"></i>
  <div class="info-text">
    <div class="info-title">Informational title</div>
    <div class="info-description">Description text here.</div>
  </div>
</div>
"@

# Success
$success = @"
<div class="info-card success">
  <i class="info-icon fa-solid fa-circle-check"></i>
  <div class="info-text">
    <div class="info-title">Success</div>
    <div class="info-description">Operation completed</div>
  </div>
</div>
"@

# Error
$error = @"
<div class="info-card error">
  <i class="info-icon fa-solid fa-circle-exclamation"></i>
  <div class="info-text">
    <div class="info-title">Error</div>
    <div class="info-description">Service stopped</div>
  </div>
</div>
"@

# Warning
$warning = @"
<div class="info-card warning">
  <i class="info-icon fa-solid fa-triangle-exclamation"></i>
  <div class="info-text">
    <div class="info-title">Warning</div>
    <div class="info-description">Low disk space</div>
  </div>
</div>
"@

Statistic Cards

$statCard = @"
<div class="stat-card">
  <div class="stat-value">
    <span style="color: #008001;">25</span>
  </div>
  <div class="stat-desc">
    <span style="font-size: 18px;">Active Users</span>
  </div>
</div>
"@

Buttons

$buttons = @"
<a href="https://example.com" target="_blank" class="btn">Primary Button</a>

<div class="container">
  <div class="row row-cols-2">
    <div class="col">Column</div>
    <div class="col">Column</div>
    <div class="col">Column</div>
    <div class="col">Column</div>
  </div>

# No gutters
$html = @"<div class="row g-0"><div class="col">No spacing</div></div>"@"

# Custom gutters
$html = @"<div class="row g-3"><div class="col">3 spacing</div></div>"@"

# Horizontal only
$html = @"<div class="row gx-5"><div class="col">Horizontal spacing</div></div>"@"

# Vertical only
$html = @"<div class="row gy-3"><div class="col">Vertical spacing</div></div>"@"

Additional Grid Utilities

# Alignment
".justify-content-between"  # Space between
".align-items-center"       # Center align
".justify-content-center"   # Center justify
".align-items-start"        # Top align

# Gaps
".g-3"    # Gap 3 (all sides)
".gx-5"   # Horizontal gap 5

Using Piped Commands

For large HTML content, use piped commands:

$html = @"
<div class="card">
  <div class="card-body">Large content here...</div>
</div>
"@"

# Pipe to NinjaOne field
$html | Ninja-Property-Set-Piped "FieldName"

Best Practices

HTML/CSS First - Use inline styles and flexbox for simple layouts
NinjaOne Classes - Leverage built-in card, table, and info card styles
Card Width is a Form Setting - WYSIWYG field column span is set in the NinjaOne form template editor. Use flex-grow-1 on the card; use row/col-* (no container wrapper needed) for multi-card side-by-side layouts
Meaningful Icons - Font Awesome icons provide visual context; limit to card titles and key indicators to avoid visual clutter
Status Indicators - Color-coded rows and info cards for quick scanning
Character Limits - Stay under 200,000; optimize for 10,000
Sanitize Input - Escape HTML characters in user data
Charts for Data - Use Charts.css for visual data representation
Piped Data - Use for large content (via CLI)
Test Rendering - Verify in NinjaOne before production
Semantic HTML - Use appropriate heading levels and semantic elements
Accessibility - Include meaningful text for icons and links
Grid When Needed - Use Bootstrap grid for complex responsive requirements
