About this task

Follow these steps to activate an actionable use case.

The actionable use cases section on the home page displays solution cards tailored to your instance. Each card represents a base-system AI solution you can activate with guided assistance from the ServiceNow Otto panel. The system determines which cards to display based on your license entitlements, installed products, instance version compatibility, and current AI enablement state.

If there are no actionable use cases, the section doesn't appear.

Note: This topic describes the AI Admin Center feature based on the Next Experience UI. If you're using the Lux user experience for AI Admin Center, see the Lux UI version of this topic.
