This is the embedded related list. I want to add an edit button. I had seen earlier posts where we can add the button through list control. I do not see an omit edit button though.
This is the related list:
This is how the list control appears. I do not see an omit edit button. Would I just have to manually create one?

To enable the edit button on an embedded related list in ServiceNow, you need to adjust the list control settings. Right-click on the header of the related list, navigate to Configure > List Control, and then uncheck the Omit edit button checkbox. You can also manage which roles have access to the edit button by configuring the Edit roles field.

Hello @AM24 ,
Please try below steps:
- Add the list as a related list on the form first.
- Configure the "List Control" settings, including enabling the Add Edit option.
- Save the list control after making the necessary changes.
- Remove the related list from the form.
- Re-add it as an embedded list to apply the updated settings.

Hello, thank you for the suggestion. I followed the steps, but it doesn't seem like it worked in adding the edit button to the embedded list.
