Pantone Connect Integration

Bring Official Pantone Colors into Raspberry AI

Raspberry AI integrates with Pantone Connect to bring the official Pantone color libraries directly into your design workflow. Search and apply colors from any of Pantone's 16 standard color books without leaving the app, with the exact Pantone code attached to every color you pick.

Raspberry Capabilities for Pantone Customers

Pantone Connect is the official digital access point for Pantone's color libraries, used by design and product teams to specify, communicate, and align on color across the supply chain.

The Raspberry AI integration brings those libraries directly into every color picker in the app. When you pick a Pantone color, Raspberry locks in the exact RGB value and keeps the Pantone code attached so the color you specify is the color your team and suppliers see, all the way through to export.

Key benefits

Official Pantone Libraries, In-App

Access up to 16 standard Pantone Connect books including Solid Coated, Solid Uncoated, CMYK, Pastels & Neons, Metallics, Color Bridge, Extended Gamut, FHI fabric books, Skin Tone Guide, and more. All directly from any color picker in Raspberry AI.

Pantone Codes That Travel with the Color

Every color you pick carries its Pantone identifier through generations and exports so downstream teams and suppliers always have the precise color reference, not just an RGB approximation.

Nearest Match Highlighting

When you open the Pantone tab, the closest match to your current color is highlighted automatically, making it easy to find the right swatch without starting from scratch.

Available Everywhere a Color Picker Appears

The Pantone tab shows up in Board Color Nodes, the Recolor tool, palette inputs, and the Editor so your team can work with Pantone colors at every point in the workflow.

No Login Required

Unlike other integrations, Pantone Connect runs on shared Raspberry-managed credentials. There's no OAuth flow and no credentials to manage. Just enable and go.

How to Enable

Unlike other integrations, there is no login and no credentials to enter. Pantone Connect runs on shared Raspberry-managed credentials, enabling it to simply unlock for your org.

Steps:

1

Go to Organization Settings → Integrations.

2

Find Pantone Connect  and click Enable.

3

A confirmation appears: "Pantone enabled. The Pantone tab is now available in every color picker."

4

Open any color picker in Boards or the Editor. The Pantone tab is now available

Note: Enabling is an admin-only action. Once an admin enables the integration, all members of the org can use the Pantone color browser.

Using Pantone in Raspberry

Once enabled, the Pantone tab appears in every color picker alongside RGB, HSV, Hex, CMYK, and Coloro. Here's how to use it:

1

Open any color picker — in a Color Node on the Board, in the Recolor tool, or in any palette input

2

Click the Pantone tab

3

Search by name (e.g. "Cobalt Blue") or by Pantone code (e.g. "19-4052")

4

The nearest match to your current color is highlighted automatically

5

Click any swatch to apply — the Pantone code stays attached and is visible in tooltips and exports

Troubleshooting

Problem

What to try

"Enable" button is disabled or hidden

Your org may be over its connector-token quota, or the integration is gated by a feature flag. Contact your Raspberry representative.

Pantone tab doesn't appear after enabling

Refresh the page. The color picker caches state across sessions. If still missing, confirm Pantone is enabled in Org Settings → Integrations

"402 / Pantone not enabled" error

The org hasn't paid the connector token, or a different org context is loaded. Confirm you're on the correct org and that Pantone shows as enabled in Settings.

Search returns nothing

Searches require at least a few characters. Try a different term. Pantone names can be specific (e.g. "Process Yellow" vs "Yellow C").

A particular Pantone book isn't showing

The Raspberry-managed Pantone account may not be entitled to that book. Contact your Raspberry representative to request additional book licenses.

Some color codes aren't found

Pantone Connect updates books periodically. If a new color isn't appearing, the Raspberry cache refreshes every few hours

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a separate Pantone account?

No. The integration runs on shared Raspberry-managed credentials. You don't need your own Pantone Connect account to use it.

Can multiple team members use the integration?

Yes. Once an admin enables the integration, all members of the org can access the Pantone color browser in every color picker.

Which Pantone books are included?

Up to 16 standard Pantone Connect books are available, including Solid Coated, Solid Uncoated, CMYK, Pastels & Neons, Metallics, Color Bridge, Extended Gamut, FHI fabric books, and the Skin Tone Guide. The books available to your org depend on the Raspberry-managed Pantone account entitlements. Contact your Raspberry representative to request additional books.

Does Pantone see my other Raspberry AI generations?

No. Only the colors you explicitly select are referenced from Pantone Connect. Nothing is shared in the background.
