I would prefer to have a quick viewport material setup directly in the material output in this case

A viewport color input in the material output node.

* @Shimoon * or in material output? so when pressing ctrl+shift+clic with node wrangler you can add the viewport color pressing once again

or in material output as another entry viewport? so when pressing ctrl+shift+clic with node wrangler you can add the viewport color pressing once again (and why not a color props there...well i forgot the shortcut to switch entries in output . a big cleaning about shortcuts is needed there...ah yes the lazzy conect with ctrl shift too {attachment Blender_3jpg}

I think this setup can change viewport color from cycles nodegraph.But i need reverse functionality,getting viewport color information into cycles.

why not...

if you want to use the color of the viewport it has to be at the final in the ouput. if not any other color node can interact with the result you want. Viewport is an ouptut ;) as cycle or eevee...

I came to rightclickselect to suggest an automatic viewport color based on the material output, as good as it can be done. But this idea is good too :)
