CAD Exam Dumps - ServiceNow Certified Application Developer Questions and Answers

 The correct combination of statements is a, b, and d. These are possible reasons to build custom applications on ServiceNow:

To replace outdated, inadequate, custom business applications and processes. Building custom applications on ServiceNow can help digitize and automate manual or legacy processes that are not covered by existing ServiceNow solutions. This can improve efficiency, data quality, user experience, and innovation.

To extend service delivery and management to all enterprise departments. Building custom applications on ServiceNow can help provide consistent and scalable services across different functions and teams in the organization. This can enhance collaboration, visibility, productivity, and customer satisfaction.

To extend the value of ServiceNow. Building custom applications on ServiceNow can help leverage the capabilities and benefits of the Now Platform®, such as low-code development tools, workflow automation engine, AI-powered insights, security operations, etc. This can increase agility, resilience, performance, and value.

The statement c is not a valid reason to build custom applications on ServiceNow:

To allow users full access to all ServiceNow tables, records, and fields. Building custom applications on ServiceNow does not imply granting users full access to all data and objects in ServiceNow. Access control rules still apply to custom applications and their components to ensure security and compliance. Reference: Build Custom Apps in ServiceNow – eBook

In ServiceNow, a Record Producer is a specific type of catalog item that enables users to create task-based records through a simplified interface.

servicenow.com

To create a module that directs users to a Record Producer UI:

Link Type Selection: Choose "URL (from Arguments:)" as the Link Type. This option allows you to specify a direct URL, enabling the module to open the desired Record Producer interface.

URL Configuration: In the "Arguments" field, input the URL that points directly to the Record Producer. This URL typically follows the format:

/record_producer.do?sys_id=

Replace with the actual sys_id of the Record Producer you intend to open.

By configuring the module this way, users accessing it will be presented with the Record Producer's user-friendly interface, facilitating the creation of new records without navigating through the standard form UI.

 The application development plan is a document that outlines the scope, objectives, deliverables, and timeline of a software project1. It should include the following business requirements and processes:

Data input/output: This describes what data is needed for the application to function, how the data is collected, stored, processed, and displayed, and what outputs are generated by the application2.

Business problem: This defines the problem or opportunity that the application aims to address, the current situation, the desired outcome, and the benefits of the solution3.

Process steps: This details the steps involved in the application development lifecycle, such as planning, designing, testing, deploying, and maintaining the application4.

Users/stakeholders: This identifies the people who will use, benefit from, or influence the application, their roles, responsibilities, and expectations, and how they will be involved in the project5.

In ServiceNow, the Caller Access field is used to define the level of access that external scripts or applications have to a particular script include or application resource. The valid options for the Caller Access field are:

None: No special restrictions are applied; the resource is accessible as defined by other security settings.

Caller Restriction: Limits access to the resource, allowing only specified callers or applications to invoke it.

Caller Tracking: Enables tracking of which callers are accessing the resource, providing an audit trail for monitoring purposes.

Options such as "Accessible from," "Allow Configuration," and "Caller Permission" are not valid selections for the Caller Access field.

For more detailed information, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation on Restricted Caller Access Privileges.

To include specific records from a table (often referred to as seed data) when distributing an application in ServiceNow, developers must add these records to the application as application files. This ensures that when the application is installed on another instance, the specified records are included.

Option C is correct because using the "Create Application Files" feature allows developers to select specific records to include in the application package. This process creates application files for the selected records, ensuring they are installed along with the application on other instances.

Options A, B, and D are incorrect:

A: The activation status of Table A and whether it extends the Task table do not determine whether its records are included during installation.

B: Having an automatic number counter and setting a table property do not control the inclusion of records in the application package.

D: The System Clone > Exclude Tables list pertains to cloning operations and does not affect application installation.

For detailed guidance on including table records in application deployments, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation:

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

Comprehensive and Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:

Understanding Application Scope and Picker:

The Application Picker in ServiceNow allows developers to switch between different applications (scopes).

When you select an application from the Application Picker, the Application Scope is set to that application, enabling you to develop or configure within that scope.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option A: The Global application does appear in the Application Picker.

Option B: Selecting Global does not set the scope to Incident; it sets the scope to the Global application, which is not restricted by scoped boundaries.

Option D: Selecting an application does indeed set the Application Scope.
