After playing around with the branding package, I don't see an option to change the report server (Sept 2021 release) folder icon color. I think the next step might be some developer tools logging to understand the object properties.

Hi @quickstep ,
The icon display of the folder is the same icon set by the default layout. It is not possible to customize the changes for now.
If there is a strong demand for this, you can post your idea here. If a large number of people vote, Microsoft officials will consider this feature in the next update.

Hi,

We also have customized the colorization of the portal and the BLUE folders are glaringly ugly with our color scheme.
Everyone knows that the Report Server version of Power BI is the "red headed step-child" but please Microsoft - throw us a bone here...
