"You must first select read access to grant any other API record operation."

The Application Access configuration fields control the access level for an application and its tables. The following Application Access configuration fields are not available if the Can read configuration field is not selected:

Can create. This field determines whether users can create records on the application tables.

Can update. This field determines whether users can update records on the application tables.

Can delete. This field determines whether users can delete records on the application tables.

These fields are not available because they depend on the Can read field, which determines whether users can view records on the application tables. If users cannot read records, they cannot create, update, or delete them either.

The following Application Access configuration fields are available regardless of the Can read configuration field:

All access to this table via web services. This field determines whether users can access the application tables using web services, such as REST or SOAP.

Allow configuration. This field determines whether users can configure the application tables, such as adding or modifying fields, views, or indexes. References: Application Access, Certified Application Developer (CAD) Learning Path

Application Files are ServiceNow artifacts comprising an application. An application is a group of files and data that work together to provide a service or functionality. An application file is a specific type of file that belongs to an application, such as a table, a script, a form, a business rule, a UI action, etc. Application files define the structure, logic, and interface of the application. An XML export of an application’s table records, XML exports of an application’s Update Set, and CSV files containing data imported into an application are not examples of application files, as they are data formats that can be used to transfer or store information related to an application, but not the application itself. Reference: Application Files

A module is the functionality within an application menu such as opening a page in the content frame or a separate tab or window. For example, Open is a module under the Problem application menu that opens a list of problem records. Modules are the second level navigation options for applications. Reference: Modules | ServiceNow Tutorials

The Allow configuration Application Access option determines whether users can configure the application tables, such as adding or modifying fields, views, or indexes. The following is true for a table with the Allow configuration option selected:

Out of scope applications can create Business Rules for the table. This is true because the Allow configuration option grants access to the table configuration to any user who has the admin or personalize_dictionary role, regardless of the application scope. This means that users can create Business Rules, which are server-side scripts that run when a record is displayed, inserted, updated, or deleted, for the table from any application.

The following are not true for a table with the Allow configuration option selected:

Only the in scope application’s scripts can create Business Rules for the table. This is false because the Allow configuration option does not restrict the creation of Business Rules to the in scope application, as explained above.

Any user with the application’s user role can modify the application’s scripts. This is false because the Allow configuration option does not grant access to the application scripts, such as client scripts or script includes, to any user who has the application’s user role. To modify the application scripts, users need to have the admin role or the application’s admin role.

Out of scope applications can add new tables to the scoped application. This is false because the Allow configuration option does not allow out of scope applications to add new tables to the scoped application. To add new tables to a scoped application, users need to have the admin role or the application’s admin role and be in the application scope. References: Application Access, Business Rules

One of the uses of the ServiceNow REST API Explorer is to create sample code for sending REST requests to ServiceNow. The REST API Explorer is a tool that allows you to discover and test the ServiceNow REST APIs. You can select an API endpoint, set the HTTP method, parameters, headers, and body, and then execute the request. The REST API Explorer will show you the response status, headers, and body, as well as generate sample code for various languages and frameworks, such as cURL, Java, JavaScript, Node.js, Python, Ruby, and more. References: [Use the REST API Explorer - Product Documentation: Tokyo - ServiceNow], [Introduction to Scripted REST APIs - ServiceNow Developers]

Flow Designer is a graphical tool that allows users to automate processes in ServiceNow without coding. The following are supported by Flow Designer:

Call a subflow from a flow. This is a feature that allows users to invoke a subflow, which is a reusable unit of logic, from a flow. This can help simplify complex flows and avoid duplication of logic.

Use Delegated Developer. This is a feature that allows administrators to delegate the development and maintenance of flows and actions to users who are not administrators. This can help distribute the workload and empower non-admin users to create automations.

Run a flow from a MetricBase Trigger. This is a feature that allows users to trigger a flow based on a MetricBase query, which is a way of analyzing time-series data in ServiceNow. This can help automate actions based on data trends and patterns.

The following is not supported by Flow Designer:

Test a flow with rollback. This is not a feature of Flow Designer, but of Automated Test Framework (ATF), which is a tool that allows users to create and run automated tests on ServiceNow applications and features. ATF supports testing flows with rollback, which means reverting any changes made by the flow during the test execution. References: Flow Designer, Automated Test Framework

In ServiceNow, to create a module that directs users to a Record Producer (a simplified form for creating records), you should use the "URL (from Arguments)" Link Type. This configuration allows you to specify a direct link to the Record Producer.

Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Module Creation:

Go to the Application Menu where you want to add the module.

Click on "Edit Application Menu" and then "New Module."

Set Link Type:

In the module's configuration, set the Link Type to "URL (from Arguments)."

Define the URL:

In the Arguments field, provide the URL to the Record Producer. The URL typically follows this pattern:

arduino

CopyEdit

servicenow_instance_url/com.glideapp.servicecatalog_cat_item_view.do?sysparm_id=record_producer_sys_id

Replace servicenow_instance_url with your instance's URL and record_producer_sys_id with the sys_id of the Record Producer.

Explanation of Other Options:

HTML (from Arguments): Used to display custom HTML content. Not suitable for linking directly to Record Producers.

Content Page: Used to display predefined content pages within ServiceNow. Not applicable for direct Record Producer links.

Script (from Arguments): Allows execution of a script to determine the module's behavior. This is more complex and unnecessary for simply linking to a Record Producer.

there are only two types of UX options: Mobile and Classic. Classic is defined as "manage records via lists and form"

Application Properties let developers expose configurable values (via system properties), so behavior can be changed without altering code.

From Development Handbook 4.0.4, p. 167:

“Use application properties to enable or disable features or change behavior without modifying scripts directly. This promotes modularity and flexibility.”

"Application developers must select an application as their current scope context."

The Form Designer is a graphical interface for creating and customizing forms. The following statements are true for the Form Designer:

To add a field to the form layout, drag the field from the Fields tab to the desired destination on the form. This will add the field to the form view without changing the table definition.

To create a new field on a form’s table, drag the appropriate data type from the Field Types tab to the form and then configure the new field. This will create a new column on the table and add the field to the form view.

To remove a field from the form layout, hover over the field to enable the Action buttons, and select the Delete (X) button. This will remove the field from the form view but not from the table definition.

The following statement is false for the Form Designer:

To add a section to the form layout, drag it from the Field Types tab to the desired destination on the form. This is incorrect because sections are not available in the Field Types tab. To add a section, click the Add Section button on the toolbar or right-click on the form and select Add Section. References: Introduction to App Engine Studio for Developers, ServiceNow Studio Overview, Form Designer

Flow Designer is a no-code platform capability that lets you automate business processes in a single drag-and-drop design environment. Some of the features of Flow Designer are:

Add stages to a flow: You can define the stages of a flow to track its progress and status. Stages can be used to group actions, subflows, and conditions into logical units.

Call a flow from another flow or subflow: You can reuse existing flows or subflows by calling them from another flow or subflow. This allows you to modularize your automation and avoid duplication of logic.

Test a flow using the “Run as” feature: You can test a flow using the “Run as” feature to specify the user context and input parameters for the flow execution. This helps you to verify the functionality and performance of your flow before publishing it.

Flow Designer Data Sheet - ServiceNow

In ServiceNow, when developing within a privately-scoped application, certain logging methods are recommended for use in server-side scripts to ensure proper logging and debugging. The GlideSystem (gs) object provides several methods for this purpose:

gs.debug():

Description: Logs messages at the "Debug" level.

Usage: gs.debug('Debug message here');

Purpose: Useful for logging detailed information during development and troubleshooting. These messages are typically only visible when the system's logging level is set to "Debug."

gs.error():

Description: Logs messages at the "Error" level.

Usage: gs.error('Error message here');

Purpose: Used to log error messages that indicate a problem that might still allow the application to continue running.

gs.warn():

Description: Logs messages at the "Warning" level.

Usage: gs.warn('Warning message here');

Purpose: Used to log potentially harmful situations that are not necessarily errors but may require attention.

gs.info():

Description: Logs messages at the "Information" level.

Usage: gs.info('Information message here');

Purpose: Used to log informational messages that highlight the progress of the application at a coarse-grained level.

Deprecated or Unsupported Methods in Scoped Applications:

gs.log():

Description: This method is not supported in scoped applications. It is restricted to the global scope and is not accessible from a private scope. Therefore, it should be avoided in privately-scoped applications.

In ServiceNow, when importing data from external sources, the data is first loaded into an Import Set table, which acts as a staging area. To move this data into an existing ServiceNow table (known as the target table), a Transform Map is used. A Transform Map is a set of field mappings that define the relationships between fields in the Import Set table and fields in the target table. This mapping ensures that data is accurately transformed and transferred to the correct fields in the target table during the import process. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Transform Map.

The other options are not related to this specific function:

A. Business Service Management Map: This is not a standard term used in the context of data import and transformation in ServiceNow.

B. Data Sources: These define the origin of the data being imported but do not handle the field mapping between Import Set tables and target tables.

D. Schema Map Relationship Builder: This tool visualizes the relationships between tables in the database schema but is not used for mapping fields during data transformation.

For more detailed information, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation on Transform Maps.

Flow Designer variables can store record data and complex data using the following data types:

Integer: A whole number that can be used in mathematical operations.

Array: A collection of items that can be accessed by their index or iterated over using a For each action.

String: Any kind of text, such as email addresses or the text contents of a file.

Publish applications to the ServiceNow Store

It is possible to change an application’s scope in ServiceNow, either from global to private or from private to global. However, changing the scope of an application may affect its functionality and compatibility with other applications. Therefore, it is recommended to test the application thoroughly before and after changing its scope.

The Automated Test Framework (ATF) is a tool that allows you to create and run automated tests on the ServiceNow platform. The ATF uses test steps to define the actions and validations for each test. The test step that allows you to create a user with specified roles and groups for the test is the Create a user test step. This test step creates a temporary user record that is deleted at the end of the test. You can specify the user name, password, roles, and groups for the user. You can also use the Impersonate a user test step to switch to the created user and perform actions as that user.

The other options are not valid test steps for creating a user. The Create a role and Create a group test steps do not exist in the ATF. To create a role or a group, you need to use the Create a record test step and specify the sys_user_role or sys_user_group table. The Impersonation test step does not create a user, but switches to an existing user.

"There are two possible ways to respond to events:

- Email Notification

- Script Action" - see this quote in link below:

The following roles grant access to source control repository operations such as importing applications from source control, or linking an application to source control:

source_control. This is a role that allows users to perform basic source control operations, such as importing an application from a source control repository, updating an application from a source control repository, or committing changes to a source control repository.

admin. This is a role that grants full access to all the features and functions of the ServiceNow platform, including source control operations. Users with this role can also perform advanced source control operations, such as creating or deleting source control repositories, configuring source control properties, or resolving conflicts.

The following roles do not grant access to source control repository operations:

source_control_admin. This is not a valid role in ServiceNow. There is no separate role for source control administration, as this function is included in the admin role.

git_admin. This is not a valid role in ServiceNow. Git is a specific type of source control system that ServiceNow supports, but there is no role dedicated to Git administration. References: Source Control, Source Control Roles

A transform map determines the relationships between fields in an import set table and fields in an existing ServiceNow table. It also specifies how to transform the imported data before mapping it to the target table.

1. What Exactly is an Import Set? - ServiceNow Developers

Import set table - ServiceNow Application Development [Book]

The steps to import new data into ServiceNow from a spreadsheet are: Load Data, Create Transform Map, Run Transform. Load Data is the process of uploading the spreadsheet file and creating an Import Set table that contains the data to be imported. Create Transform Map is the process of defining how the fields from the Import Set table map to the fields of the target table in ServiceNow. Run Transform is the process of executing the Transform Map and copying the data from the Import Set table to the target table. Reference: Import sets, Transform maps

A benefit of creating an Application Properties page for each application you develop is that Application Properties allow a developer or admin to make changes to an application’s behavior without modifying application artifacts. Application Properties are system properties that store configuration information for a specific application. They can be used to control various aspects of the application, such as feature flags, default values, thresholds, or URLs. By creating an Application Properties page, you can group and display all the properties related to your application in one place and make them easy to access and update. This way, you can avoid hard-coding static data in your application code and make your application more flexible and maintainable. Reference: Working with System Properties, Organizing your ServiceNow System Properties

"The sequence is ROLES first, then condition, then script." - Chuck Tomasi says so at this link:

In ServiceNow, Modules are navigation elements that provide access to various parts of the platform, such as forms, lists, reports, or other application components. They are organized within Application Menus to create a structured and intuitive navigation hierarchy.

Key characteristics of Modules:

Part of Application Menus: Every module is contained within an application menu. This organization helps users navigate to different areas of the platform efficiently. For instance, the "Incident" application menu may contain modules like "Create New" or "All Incidents."

Functionality: Modules can open various elements, including forms, lists, reports, or URLs. This flexibility allows modules to direct users to specific records, filtered lists, or external resources.

Association with Tables: While many modules are associated with specific tables (e.g., a module that displays a list of incidents is associated with the "Incident" table), it's not a strict requirement. Some modules may link to external URLs or perform actions not directly tied to a table.

Access Control: Access to modules is controlled through roles. Administrators can define which user roles have visibility and access to specific modules, ensuring that users only see modules relevant to their responsibilities.

For example, a module named "Active Incidents" under the "Incident" application menu might display a list of all active incident records. Access to this module can be restricted to users with the "itil" role, ensuring that only authorized personnel can view active incidents.

In ServiceNow, a Record Producer allows users to create records in a specific table through the Service Catalog. After a user submits a Record Producer, developers may want to redirect the user to a specific page. This can be achieved by setting the producer.redirect property within the Script field of the Record Producer.

For example:

javascript

CopyEdit

producer.redirect = 'incident.do?sys_id=' + current.sys_id;

This script redirects the user to the newly created incident record after submission.

Option A is incorrect because configuring the module that opens the Record Producer does not control the post-submission behavior.

Option C is unnecessary for simple redirection purposes; creating an application property to store the URL adds unnecessary complexity.

Option D is incorrect because using window.redirect in a Business Rule is not appropriate; Business Rules run on the server side and do not have access to the client-side

From the list below, the following is a reason an application might not be a good fit with ServiceNow:

Requires “as-is” use of low-level programming libraries. This is the correct answer because ServiceNow is a high-level platform that abstracts away the low-level details of the underlying infrastructure and technology stack. ServiceNow provides a rich set of APIs, tools, and features that allow users to develop applications without coding or with minimal coding. However, ServiceNow does not support the direct

Inbound email matching uses Watermarks and Subject lines (with record numbers like INC0010001) to associate emails with existing records.

From Email Handling Docs:

“ServiceNow uses Watermark IDs and subject lines containing record numbers to find the corresponding task or record when processing inbound email.”

From:

g_form.showFieldMsg("field_name", "Hello World", "error"); Puts "Hello World" in an error message **below the specified field**. g_form.addInfoMessage() or g_form.addErrorMessage() place a blue box message at the top of the screen. Pg 126 of the CAD handbook

The method that prints a message on a blue background to the top of the current form by default is g_form.addInfoMessage(). The g_form object is a global object that provides access to form fields and UI elements on a form. The addInfoMessage() method is a method of the g_form object that displays an informational message next to the form header. The message has a blue background color by default, unless it is overridden by a CSS style. The addInfoMessage() method takes one argument, which is the message text to display. References: [ServiceNow Docs - GlideForm (g_form) API], [ServiceNow Docs - g_form.addInfoMessage()]

In ServiceNow, the Event Registry is a table that contains a record for every event recognized by the system. It allows ServiceNow to respond when these events are generated. By registering events, the system can automate activities such as triggering notifications or executing script actions when specific events occur. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The other options are not accurate descriptions of the Event Registry:

B. The Event Log which lists all Events that have been generated: This describes the Event Log, not the Event Registry.

C. A Workflow which is launched every time an Event is generated; used to debug Events: This is not how the Event Registry functions.

D. The method used in server-side scripts to generate Events and pass parameters: This describes the gs.eventQueue() method, not the Event Registry.

For more detailed information, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation on the Event Registry.

User-defined non-inherited fields can be deleted from a table in ServiceNow. These are fields that are created by users on a specific table and are not inherited from a parent table. Inherited fields cannot be deleted from a table, as they are defined on a parent table and shared by all child tables. Any field on a table cannot be deleted, as some fields are system-defined and essential for the table functionality. Table records are not deleted when a field is deleted, as the field deletion only affects the table structure and not the data. Reference: Delete fields

A workflow is a tool that allows you to automate processes on the ServiceNow platform. A workflow consists of activities and transitions that define the logic and flow of the process. A workflow context is an instance of a workflow that is generated from a workflow version, executes activities, and follows transitions. A workflow context is associated with a specific record on a table and tracks the state and progress of the workflow. You can view and manage the workflow contexts from the Workflow Contexts module or the Workflow Contexts related list on a record.

The other options are not valid definitions of a workflow context. A checked out workflow is a workflow that is being edited by a user and has not been published yet. The table and conditions for a workflow are the criteria that determine when a workflow should run on a record. The business reason or process for a workflow is the purpose and function of the workflow.

An example of when an application might not use a Scheduled Script Execution (Scheduled Job) is when the application needs to run a client-side script at the same time every day. A Scheduled Script Execution is a server-side script that runs on a specified schedule and performs some action on the server or database. A client-side script runs on the user’s browser and cannot be scheduled by ServiceNow. The other options are examples of when an application might use a Scheduled Script Execution, such as sending email reminders, running a clean up script, or querying the database for unassigned records. Reference: Scheduled Script Execution, Client scripts

Checkbox tooltip: "Show this module when the user has the specified roles. Otherwise the user must have the roles specified by both the application menu and the module."

The following is true for the Override application menu roles configuration option when configuring a module:

Users with the module role but without access to the application menu access the module. This is true because the Override application menu roles option allows users to bypass the application menu role requirement and access the module directly if they have the module role. For example, if a module has the itil role and the Override application menu roles option enabled, and the application menu has the admin role, then a user who has the itil role but not the admin role can still access the module.

The following are not true for the Override application menu roles configuration option when configuring a module:

Self-Service users can access the module even though they do not have roles. This is false because the Override application menu roles option does not grant access to the module to users who do not have any roles. Self-Service users are users who do not have any roles assigned to them and can only access the Self-Service portal and the Knowledge Base. To access the module, users need to have at least the module role.

Admin is given access to the module even if Access Controls would ordinarily prevent access. This is false because the Override application menu roles option does not override the Access Control (ACL) rules that apply to the module. Access Control rules are used to restrict the access to the data and functionality of the ServiceNow platform based on the user’s roles and conditions. Admin is a role

An application admin is a role that grants full access to an application and its tables, scripts, and other components1. An application admin can create, modify, and delete any element of the application, as well as publish and install it2. An application typically has an application admin role that is automatically created and assigned to the application creator3.

References = 1: Application administration - ServiceNow Docs 2: Application admin role - ServiceNow Docs 3: Application roles - ServiceNow Docs

Enabling “Allow access to this table via web services” allows authenticated users with proper roles to access this table via REST/SOAP APIs.

From Development Handbook 4.0.4, p. 191:

"This setting allows web service access to a table, but still requires that users have appropriate roles and permissions through ACLs."

Thus, access isn’t automatic — proper access controls still apply.

In ServiceNow, a workflow context refers to a specific instance of a workflow execution. When a workflow is initiated—whether by inserting or updating a record, triggering an event, or through scripts—the system creates a workflow context. This context is derived from a particular version of the workflow and is responsible for executing the defined activities and following the specified transitions within that workflow.

Key points about workflow context:

Instance of Execution: Each time a workflow runs, a new context is created to manage that specific execution instance. This allows multiple instances of the same workflow to operate independently and simultaneously.

Execution of Activities: The context manages the progression through the workflow's activities, ensuring that each step is executed in the defined order and under the specified conditions.

Tracking and Management: Workflow contexts enable administrators to monitor the state and progress of workflow executions. They provide visibility into which activities have been completed, which are pending, and any transitions that have occurred.

For example, if a workflow is designed to handle approval processes, each time an approval is initiated, a new workflow context is created to manage that particular approval instance. This context will track the approval's progress, manage notifications, and handle any branching logic defined in the workflow.

Scheduled Script Executions (formerly known as Scheduled Jobs) are used to run server-side logic at specific intervals, such as querying or updating records automatically. Option B describes a valid server-side scheduled use case.

From ServiceNow Docs ( ):

“Scheduled Script Executions allow you to define JavaScript logic that runs on a schedule to automate tasks such as checking data integrity, generating reports, or reassigning records.”

Client-side logic like in options A, C, and D must use Client Scripts or UI Policies, not Scheduled Jobs.

Inherited fields in ServiceNow are fields that are part of a parent table and automatically become part of child tables through inheritance. This structure is foundational in the ServiceNow data model, ensuring that child tables maintain a consistent relationship with their parent tables.

Here’s why inherited fields cannot be deleted from a child table:

System Design:ServiceNow employs a table inheritance model where child tables derive fields and properties from parent tables. Deleting inherited fields from a child table would break the integrity of the data model, as those fields are shared across multiple tables.

Impact on Functionality:Many inherited fields, such as sys_created_on or sys_updated_by, are integral to the functionality of the platform. Removing them could disrupt workflows, reporting, and auditing capabilities.

Alternative Approach:If you want to hide or restrict access to inherited fields in a child table, you can use ACLs (Access Control Lists) to prevent users from viewing or modifying these fields. Another option is to use UI Policies or Client Scripts to control their visibility on forms.

Developer Note:Attempting to delete inherited fields violates ServiceNow’s core principles of maintaining a robust and unified data structure. The platform enforces these rules to ensure consistent behavior across all tables in the hierarchy.

Self-invoking. Learn JavaScript!

This type of JavaScript function is known as self-invoking or immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE). It is a function that is defined and executed at the same time, without being assigned to a variable or being called by another function. It is often used to create a local scope for variables and avoid polluting the global namespace. References: [W3Schools - JavaScript Function Definitions], [MDN Web Docs - Immediately-invoked function expressions]

A Record Producer in ServiceNow is a specific type of catalog item that enables users to create records in a particular table through a simplified interface. They are often used to allow users to create task-based records, such as incidents or change requests, from the Service Catalog.

servicenow.com

Key characteristics of Record Producers include:

Graphics can be included on the user interface: Developers can enhance the user experience by adding images or icons to the Record Producer form, making it more intuitive and visually appealing.

Each field prompts the user with a question rather than a field label: Instead of standard field labels, Record Producers can present fields as questions to guide users in providing the necessary information. This approach makes the form more user-friendly and context-specific.

You can script behaviors of fields in the user interface: Developers have the flexibility to add client-side scripts to control the behavior of fields on the Record Producer form. This capability allows for dynamic interactions, such as showing or hiding fields based on user input or pre-populating fields with specific data.

Option A is incorrect because records created by a Record Producer are inserted into the table specified during its configuration, not necessarily the Requested Item [sc_req_item] table. Option C is incorrect because scripting is not mandatory for Record Producers; they can function without additional scripting, although scripting can be used to enhance functionality when needed.

Creating an Application Properties page in ServiceNow provides a centralized location where developers or administrators can configure settings that influence the behavior of an application. This approach offers several benefits:

Dynamic Configuration: By exposing certain parameters through an Application Properties page, administrators can adjust the application's behavior in response to changing requirements or environments without altering the underlying code or application artifacts.

Simplified Maintenance: Having a dedicated properties page reduces the need for direct modifications to scripts or configurations, thereby minimizing the risk of introducing errors. It also streamlines the process of updating settings, as changes can be made through the user interface.

Enhanced Flexibility: Developers can design applications with configurable options, allowing for greater adaptability across different

The Field Watcher is a debugging tool that allows you to monitor the values of fields on a form as they change due to scripts or other actions. It can be used to debug Business Rules, Client Scripts, and Access Controls, but not Script Includes. Script Includes are server-side scripts that define reusable functions and classes. They are not associated with any specific field or form, and therefore cannot be watched by the Field Watcher.

The server-side API debug log method available for scoped applications is gs.info(). This method logs informational messages that describe the progress of the application. Older methods such as gs.print() and gs.log() are not available in scoped applications. The gs.debuglog() method does not exist. The gs.info(), gs.warn(), gs.error(), and gs.debug() methods work in both scoped applications and global, and are therefore more versatile going forward in future versions. Reference: Debugging best practices

A spoke is a scoped application containing Flow Designer content dedicated to a particular application or record type. Flow Designer provides a set of core actions to automate Now Platform® processes. You can add application-specific core actions by activating the associated spoke.

The step that does not belong when creating a Utils Script Include is identifying the table. A Script Include is a server-side script that can contain one or more classes or functions that can be reused by other scripts. It does not depend on a specific table, but can access any table through GlideRecord or other APIs. The other steps are part of creating a Script Include class and its prototype object. References: [ServiceNow Docs - Script Includes], [ServiceNow Docs - GlideRecord API]

Web services are software systems that use standardized protocols and formats, such as XML and HTTP, to exchange data and messages between different applications or systems over the Internet or other networks12. Web services enable interoperability and integration among diverse software components, regardless of their programming languages, platforms, or architectures34.

In ServiceNow, Access Controls (ACLs) are used to manage permissions for various database operations on tables and their records. The primary operations that can be controlled include:

Create:

Description: Permission to insert new records into a table.

Control: ACLs can be defined to allow or deny users the ability to create records based on roles, conditions, or scripts.

Update:

Description: Permission to modify existing records in a table.

Control: ACLs can restrict who can update records, ensuring that only authorized users can make changes.

Other Operations:

Read: Controls the ability to view records in a table.

Delete: Manages the permission to remove records from a table.

Incorrect Options:

Execute: Not a standard database operation controlled by ACLs in ServiceNow.

Query: While querying is part of the read operation, ACLs specifically control the read access rather than the query process itself.

The data type of a field determines the format, validation, and display of the field value on a form. When selecting a data type for a field, you should consider the purpose and function of the field. The statements A, C, and D are correct for selecting a data type for a field. For example:

Use the Choice data type to limit options in a field: The Choice data type allows you to create a field that has a predefined set of options for the user to select from. The options can be displayed as a drop-down list, radio buttons, or checkboxes. For example, you can use the Choice data type for a field that indicates the priority of a task.

Use the Phone Number data type to automate phone number data validation: The Phone Number data type allows you to create a field that accepts and validates phone numbers. The field will automatically format the phone number according to the user’s locale and country code. For example, you can use the Phone Number data type for a field that stores the contact number of a user.

Use the string data type for a free-form text field: The string data type allows you to create a field that accepts any text input from the user. The field can have a maximum length of 255 characters. For example, you can use the string data type for a field that captures the short description of an incident.

The statement B is not correct for selecting a data type for a field. There is no Data data type in ServiceNow. To enter the date and time of day, you should use the Date/Time data type. The Date/Time data type allows you to create a field that accepts and displays a date and time value. The field will use a calendar widget and a time picker to help the user enter the value. For example, you can use the Date/Time data type for a field that records the due date of a task.

In ServiceNow, when a new field is added to an existing table, it is not automatically included in any existing List views. List views are predefined configurations that determine which fields are displayed when viewing records in a list format. To display the new field in a List view, you must manually modify the List layout to include the field.

Steps to Add a New Field to a List View:

Navigate to the List Layout Configuration:

Go to the table's list view.

Right-click on the header row (where the column titles are displayed).

Select "Configure" and then "List Layout."

Add the New Field:

In the List Layout configuration, you'll see two columns: "Available" and "Selected."

Locate your new field in the "Available" column.

Use the arrow buttons to move the new field to the "Selected" column, placing it in the desired order.

Save the Configuration:

Click "Save" or "OK" to apply the changes.

The new field will now appear in the List view as configured.
