Understand how to configure ServiceNow web components on your instance.

Components you can configure

Each component displays a different part of your ServiceNow data on your external website. Use the following table to choose the components that fit your use case.

Component What it shows
Case list component A list of cases with key details such as number, short description, and status.
Case view component The details of one case, with activity and attachments.
Case create component A form to submit a case.
Catalog item component A form to request an item or service.
Catalog browse component Catalog items that you can browse by catalog or category, or search by keyword.
Knowledge article view component A knowledge article with its title, author, and read time.
Playbook intake component A guided experience for submitting a case, with the stages involved in resolving it.
Data visualization component Data from any table as a score, pie, donut, or semi-donut chart.
Object list component Records from any table in a list, with bulk and inline actions.

How you configure a component

Every component follows the same workflow:

  1. Create a module. See Create a module.
  2. Add a group to the module, then add a component instance to the group. See Create a group and add a component instance.
  3. Set the component properties for the instance.
  4. Configure CORS rules so your website can call your instance. See Configure CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) rules before embedding ServiceNow components.
  5. Copy the embed code for the instance and add it to your website. See Embed ServiceNow components instance on the third-party website.

Then follow the topics for the component to see its properties and sample code.
