Add custom header and footer to native UI

How can we add custom header and footer to native UI?

DrewW · ‎08-26-2020

Not really, there is documentation on UI Scripts here.

https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/orlando-application-development/page/script/client-scripts/concep...

After that you are going to have to figure it out on your own by looking at the page HTML and using javascript to hack it up. It will probably break at some point because ServiceNow will change something and you will have to recode it. You may also cause parts of the interface to not work properly. I would tell the people that are asking for this that it is not worth the dev time and grief it will cause.

Hi there,

Same answer as your previous post on a custom footer, a few days ago: No.

There is no configuration option or something to add a footer to the System UI.

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Thanks for your input. Any workarounds? I can think of creating announcements for header.

The only way to do this is to use a global UI Script and DOM manipulation which I do NOT recommend doing.

If all you want is some space to add an announcement then you can look this over

You other option is to create a UI Macro to add to the forms that you use that will display the message that you are looking to show.

Thanks, I'm interested in global UI Script and DOM Manipulation. Can you please elaborate?
