To allow a module to open a form for new record insertion, the Link type should be set to “Create new record” or similar.

From Platform App Design Docs:

“Modules control navigation behavior via the Link type setting. To insert records, use the 'Create record' or 'New record' link type.”

To see what scripts, reports, and other application artifacts will be in a published application, the best option is to examine the Application Files Related List in the application to be published. This will show all the application files that belong to the application, grouped by file type and scope. You can also filter, sort, or search the list to find specific files.

The following options are not the best ways to see what application artifacts will be in a published application:

Enter the name of the Application in the Global search field. This will perform a global text search on the instance and return any records that match the application name, which may include irrelevant or incomplete results.

Open the list of Update Sets for the instance. This will show all the update sets that have been created or imported on the instance, but not necessarily the ones that belong to the application to be published. Update sets are used to move customizations between instances, not to publish applications to the ServiceNow Store or Share.

Open the artifact records individually to verify the value in the Application field. This will require opening each record that may be part of the application and checking the Application field, which is tedious and error-prone. References: Publish an Application, Application Files

The ServiceNow App Repository is a central repository for all scoped applications that are published by all ServiceNow customers. It enables ServiceNow customers to upload and distribute applications between their instances. It also provides entitlements and version control for the applications.

A possible reason to build a custom app is to fulfill a specific use case on internal processes. For example, you may want to digitize a manual process that is not covered by an existing ServiceNow solution, such as managing inventory, tracking expenses, or scheduling events. Building a custom app on the Now Platform can help you automate workflows, improve data quality, and provide better user experiences. The other options are not valid reasons to build a custom app. To avoid using a code repository like GitHub or GitLab is not a reason to build a custom app, as you can still use source control integration with your custom app development. To create a custom integration for a 3rd party system is not a reason to build a custom app, as you can use integration tools such as IntegrationHub or REST APIs to connect with external systems without creating an app. To replace ServiceNow base tables is not a reason to build a custom app, as it is not recommended to modify or delete base tables that are essential for ServiceNow functionality.

Options for Creating Tables in Guided Application Creator:

Create a table from scratch: This option allows you to define a completely new table with custom fields and configurations.

Create a table from a template: You can use predefined table templates to speed up table creation. Templates often include pre-configured fields and settings.

Extend a table: This allows you to create a new table by inheriting fields and functionality from an existing table, enabling reuse and consistency.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option A (Link to external tables): Linking to external tables is not an option provided in the Guided Application Creator; external data is typically accessed through integration methods.

Option D (Run import jobs): Import jobs are used for data migration, not for table creation in the Guided Application Creator.

Option E (Upload a spreadsheet): While uploading a spreadsheet can create tables, this is a feature of Import Sets, not the Guided Application Creator.

Option F (Use API calls): API calls are for integration and not an option for creating tables directly in the Guided Application Creator.

Recurring checks, like finding task records that are unassigned, are implemented using platform automation that runs on a schedule. ServiceNow provides two common development-aligned places for this type of logic. Scheduled Script Execution is a scheduled job mechanism that runs server-side scripts at defined intervals. Developers use it to query tables (such as Task) and take actions like updating fields, creating follow-up records, or sending notifications when conditions are met. This matches option C. For low-code automation, Flow Designer also supports scheduled triggers, allowing developers to run a flow at specific times or on a repeating schedule to perform checks and actions. This matches option A (Scheduled Flows). Discovery Schedules are specific to the Discovery feature set for scanning infrastructure and are not used for general task management checks. “System Schedules” is not the standard construct where custom recurring business logic is authored for application development; the platform’s scheduled logic is typically implemented through scheduled jobs (including script executions) and scheduled flow triggers.

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.
