  3. Select a version from the list and select Install.

    In the Review Installation Details dialog box, any dependencies installed with your application are listed.

    Warning: Digital End-User Experience is installed with mutual Transport Layer Security (mTLS) automatically enabled on the ServiceNow instance. As an updated, more secure version of SSL, mTLS enhances security by encrypting data and verifying the identity of both the client and server before establishing a connection. If you have legacy security products on any other integrations with ServiceNow, they might break after DEX installation. Update these products to support TLS or mTLS.
