I just got a new personal instance on yokohama version...and wanted to install CSM plugin. At first i searched for it and started installing but after a while when i searched again to see the progress it showed 0 results.
But when i switch to classic view I am seeing all the plugins i search for.
Does anyone know why this would happen or is facing the same issue with their PDI's.

PDIs are not supported by ServiceNow.

They are highly unstable.

Did you try to clear instance cache using cache.do and then logout and login again?

Hey @Ankur Bawiskar I did try clearing cache and logging again but still faced the same issue.
Thanks.

@YuvrajS90374537 

we can't rely much on PDIs these days due to their nature of being unstable.

Hi @YuvrajS90374537 

 

please log out, then log in (perhaps clear cache in between) and retry.

 

If you cannot find a plugin, search for it by "customerservice" without what is before and after that

 

 

EDIT: or directly by the ID:

com.snc.customerservice.demo

 

 

When you navigate to this - can you see it?

https://yourinstance.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/v_plugin.do%3Fsys_id%3Dcom.snc.customerservice.demo%26sysparm_stack%3D%24allappsmgmt.do%26sysparm_use_polaris%3Dfalse
