Hello @jbescoyez

The badge is an option for some widgets.

You can find it in the widget display settings

For example on the Text widget

You can find the documentation related to conditional formatting [here](https://docs.forestadmin.com/user-guide/collections/customize-your-fields/options#conditional-formatting)
