And while I am primarily a back-end developer, this feature has me ready to brush up on my client-side skills. I expect great things from these in the Paris release, and beyond!Īgent Workspace is only the first capability powered by the Now Experience. I will be taking this summer to brush up on these platform gems.

If the following platform components were individual stocks, I would invest in them. Reference: Product Docs Maturation of useful existing features With every release, there’s at least one more reason to make ATF a mandatory part of every development story… This platform component continues to mature and grow, and regardless of our role in the SN ecosystem, ATF will likely have a feature to help. The ATF release notes also have a total of 17 items in the ‘new’ section and four in the ‘update’ section. We have been creating various inbound and outbound email configuration for years, and now we can create the ATF test suites to go along with them. As much as we would like to cut email loose and work only on the platform, the business landscape isn’t there yet. ServiceNow’s Automated Test Framework (ATF) continues to see enhancements with every release. Reference: Product Docs ATF Email – Inbound and Outbound Other data import (ETL) improvements to note: CSV line parser, new scriptable APIs to create import set tables and transform maps, existing APIs modified to support scoped execution Although I have yet to use this first hand, it looks to be a powerful, data-driven replacement for transform maps which is able to handle multiple target tables and processing rules. The most intriguing data utility is the Robust Import Set Transformers. Import set column names can be defined dynamically from your parsed JSON object.

New data source options are available, such as pulling in JSON or XML directly via REST. Reference: Product Doc s Data import optionsĪfter years of pushing the boundaries of the transform map model to optimize data import/export within the ServiceNow platform, I am eager to explore the new set of integration tools in this release.

Ability to preserve (global) update sets and clone profiles to speed up cloning in your various instances.

Put this code in a script with order 100,000 so it runs last. Alternatively, you can easily have your instance send a message to a Slack (or MS Teams) channel when the clone is completed. Now, this action can be queued at the end of the script list. INC2004 becomes INCDEV2004), but this action is quite time-consuming.

As an example, I generally recommend modifying task numbers in sub-prods after clones (e.g. The ServiceNow Orlando release delivered! With this release, it is now possible to run the smallest, simplest scripts first, and the bigger data change scripts last. Reference: Product Docs Instance Clone FeaturesĬhoosing the order in which post-clone scripts run has been a feature I have been waiting for… The wait is over. The Script Debugger helps quickly isolate coding issues during your development process and works with any code that runs in an interactive session (before/after business rules, UI actions, etc).ĭeveloper (and Community) MVP Robert Fedoruk has a quick and dirty video, (less than two minutes), which explains how to get up and running with this new feature: #ServiceNow One Minute M’Orlando – Logpoints The platform Script Debugger utility was initially added in Istanbul, but in truth, I didn’t really take it seriously until around the London (or maybe Madrid) release. If you are still using a large number of temporary gs.info (or gs.log) statements in your code, be sure to take a look at logpoints, which are built-in to the Script Debugger. Here are a few highlights which will impact our work life in a positive way in 2020.įor the complete list, refer to the ServiceNow Orlando product docs for release additions, subtractions, and changes. We have been hearing about the major features, such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (branded as “Now Intelligence”), but those big-ticket items won’t affect most of us in our day-to-day development jobs. Last month, ServiceNow’s Orlando release was made available to all customers.
