# Request Incident Management — Core

Request the Incident Management — Core plugin \(com.snc.incident\_management\), which provides the incident state model. The plugin includes demo data and activates related plugins if they are not already active.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

Incident Management — Core \(com.snc.incident\_management\) is available by default in new instances. Customers upgrading from Geneva or earlier versions must request the plugin. For more information, see [KB0564465](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0564465) article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.

**Note:** If the new state model is installed on upgraded instances, map the old states to the new ones. The mapping is especially important if you have made customizations, implemented workflows, added script includes, or added business rules.

2.  Select **Request plugin** to open the **Activate Plugin** form on Now Support.
