Can we change the background color based on String value?

Can we change the background color based on String value? Like Red for ‘down’ and Green for ‘up’ ? I see that we can update it for number values, but is it possible for String as well? I’m using Grafana version 7.2

Hi

If you have type of visualization “Text” you can change mode to HTML and put below code:
<p style="background-color:red;color:white">your text</p>
