Creating ServiceNow Cards

I'm a fan of making visually pleasing, useful applications and elements within ServiceNow.   For a bit of a project, I've created what I'm calling 'Cards' for ServiceNow and in this example have produced a visual, interactive and fast (i.e. instant) Address Book that renders data from the sys_user table in 'Card' form, which are searchable as you type - a la Google and move around in a fluid motion.

When clicked, the full 'Card' is returned in a Modal window displaying further information.   Like searching, this is all instant, with zero delay and no page loads.   It's all on the fly.

Have a look at the short youtube clip to see it in action and you can read more about it on my blog post here: Address Book "Cards" for ServiceNow - rightpalava - along with the code and steps to create it.

It makes use of Bootstrap, Isotope and some custom UI Macros as well as a UI page.  

The same principle can be used for making visual service catalogues and well, any other data too.   I'm working on a application that will allow ServiceNow admins to build these 'Card' pages through selecting options such as tables and fields to display.   Once this app is done and tested, I'll post it on the ServiceNow Share site.

For now though, I'd be interested to know what YOU think of it as an idea and how it can be developed - like this post if you like the 'Cards' and leave some comments below.

Here's the video...

The public demo is now mobile enabled too, looks lovely on an iPhone or Android device, and still fast! https://imperialdev.service-now.com/public/

Hi Adam



This looks awesome - I'm currently looking for something to support sort of a competence list for our IT department!



Can't find it on Share - any news on that?


Hi there - I'm sure it would come in handy, I'll put something together for you next week.
