You can include font icons wherever a widget is loaded by including them as a widget dependency.

Before you begin

Role required: admin or sp_admin

About this task

Note: CSS included as a widget dependency is not scoped and can disrupt other CSS on a page.

Procedure

1. In the platform UI, navigate to Service Portal > CSS and create a new style sheet.

2. Attach the font-icon set to the sp_css record you created, and use the sys_id of the attachment as the src for the font icon.

   For example:

   @font-face {
     font-family: 'Material Icons';
     font-style: normal;
     font-weight: 400;
     src: url('/828b8ca8b7033010897725cbde11a9f7.iix') format('woff2');
   }
   
   .material-icons {
     font-family: 'Material Icons';
     font-weight: normal;
     font-style: normal;
     font-size: 24px;  /* Preferred icon size */
     display: inline-block;
     line-height: 1;
     text-transform: none;
     letter-spacing: normal;
     word-wrap: normal;
     white-space: nowrap;
     direction: ltr;
   
     /* Support for all WebKit browsers. */
     -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
     /* Support for Safari and Chrome. */
     text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
   
     /* Support for Firefox. */
     -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
   
     /* Support for IE. */
     font-feature-settings: 'liga';
   }
   

3. Navigate to Service Portal > Dependencies and create a new dependency.

4. Attach the CSS record you created to the new dependency using the CSS Includes related list.
