Enable the Next Experience dark theme in configurable workspaces only, and not for the classic environment. The dark theme emits less blue light, making the display easier for your eyes and less disturbing in low-light
settings.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to All and in the filter navigator, search for `sys_properties.list`.
2. In the list search bar, search for `glide.ui.polaris.dark_themes_enabled`.
3. Enable the dark theme in all of your Next Experience configurable workspaces by setting `glide.ui.polaris.dark_themes_enabled` to True.
4. In the list search bar, search for `glide.ui.polaris.core_ui_exclude_dark_mode`.
5. Exclude the dark theme in the classic environment by setting `glide.ui.polaris.core_ui_exclude_dark_mode` to True.  
   Note:  
   If you select the dark theme, the dark theme only applies to the configurable workspaces. The classic environment remains in the default theme.
