Role required: sn_cmdb_admin

About this task

The task cards that appear in the Important tasks tile on the landing page of the CMDB Workspace, are stored in the CMDB WS Imp Action Card Config [sn_cmdb_ws_imp_action_card_config] table. You can edit some attributes of these cards, including the setting that controls whether a specific card appears at all. Cards in the Important actions tile are available only for the CMDB Admin [sn_cmdb_admin] and the CMDB Editor [sn_cmdb_editor] user roles and each is configured per one of those roles.

There is some overlap in the task cards that appear for a CMDB Admin and for a CMDB Editor, however, the filters in those task cards are different. Typically, for CMDB Admins, the card filter also includes unassigned tasks that a CMDB Admin needs to assign.

Only editing is possible, you can't add or delete action records in this table.

Procedure

Navigate to All.
In the navigation filter, enter sn_cmdb_ws_imp_action_card_config.list.
