Grant role to System Administrator while installing application

Sidharth Jain

Hello,

I have a custom application for which I have turned the "Application Administration" checkbox on. Consequently, I had to turn the "Application Administration" of a role in the application on as well so that it becomes the admin role for the application (called the app admin role from now on). While moving the application to a new instance, no user on that instance has the app admin role and no one is able to assign it either. 

This also happens with ServiceNow's own applications (like HR core, Universal Task etc.) but after installing any such ServiceNow application, the "System Administrator" user gets the app admin role automatically and I want to mimic this for my custom app as well.

Any assistance in this is much appreciated.
