Hi @anjalipriya, answer is E. Policies define what actions should be executed on the target Configuration Item (CI). To run osquery commands on a CI, you must configure a policy that includes the necessary queries and execution rules.

Policies define which queries or scripts run on an endpoint. They control the execution of osquery commands on CIs.

Hello @anjalipriya 

Checks and Policies Both seem correct here. Most specific to generic. 

To run osquery commands on a Configuration Item (CI) using ServiceNow's Agent Client Collector (ACC), you need to configure a Check. A Check defines specific tasks or queries that the ACC executes on target devices. In this case, the Check would be set up to run osquery commands on the CI.

Answer: C. Check

Kindly mark my answer as helpful and accept solution if it helped you in anyway. This will help me be recognized for the efforts and also move this questions from unsolved to solved bucket.
