If you use Windows Zip or Folder Compress in Explorer - you'll include the *directory* info along w/ the files. This causes SSRS Report Services Branding to throw an error. 

Use this PowerShell script to build your branding package instead. Note, the first command compresses the file as a pure, single-file zip (no directory info), the next two lines *add one file at a time. 

$file1 = 'C:\Temp\colors.json'
$file2 = 'C:\Temp\metadata.xml'
$file3 = 'C:\Temp\logo.png'
$destzip = 'C:\Temp\Branding1.zip'

Compress-Archive -Path $file1 -DestinationPath $destzip -Force
Compress-Archive -Path $file2 -Update -DestinationPath $destzip 
Compress-Archive -Path $file3 -Update -DestinationPath $destzip

Note that in your metadata.xml file, dont specify https for the namespace attribute, just use http

It should look like 

<SystemResourcePackage xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2016/01/systemresourcepackagemetadata"
type="UniversalBrand"

I followed these instructions here:

This worked for me. You must make sure that all files are named correctly with correct casing, and that it is in a zip file. XML file needs to be formatted correctly.
