How to create Non Human User in ServiceNow

Ajit

Hi Experts,

 

Does ServiceNow supports non human users? 

I went through https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/vancouver-platform-administration/page/administer/users-and-group...

 

Web service access only - Is this configuration parameter that distinguishes between human account and non-human account?

 

Thanks in advance!!!

Hi @Ajit 

Seems you are talking about Service Accounts. 

 

Create a services account in ServiceNow. Login to ServiceNow and navigate to system security > users and groups > users. Click on New.

Hi Atul,

 

Thanks for the response. I am interested in non-human users, i.e bot user. How we can differentiate in normal user and bot user. 

 

Thanks

Ajit

Hi @Ajit 

 

Web service access only - Is this configuration parameter that distinguishes between a human account and non-human account?

The Web service Access is the only option. 

 

This bot user will used for integration or for any other purpose? By naming convention like last name _bot or something you can use to differenate.
