Does Source Control works with Scoped Apps only or it can be used for Global apps as well?

Hi ServiceNow Community Developers,

 

I am working on a requirement to integrate ServiceNow with Github so that we are able push our changes into GitHub. One question I have though is - do you guys know if the source control in ServiceNow is scope dependent or not? In other words, can you use source control to track your changes for Global applications or it's only used for Scoped applications?

 

Kindly advise please.

 

Thanks,

Johannes

Hi Johannes,

You can do this for global scopes you create. These will live on the sys_app table (custom scope table) and have a scope of global. They're really useful for moving for update sets with some caveats when it comes to missing function parity.

 

Wording from Studio when creating a global scope.

"Global scope allows for the application to be accessible to other global applications. They do not offer the same protections as scoped applications. Applications in the global scope are eligible for upload to the application repository, but not to the ServiceNow Store."
