HI @Chirag_cms27 ,
I trust you are doing great.

To include the "&" symbol in the page header caption in ServiceNow's Basic Configuration UI16, you can use HTML entities to represent the symbol. In this case, you would use "&" to display the "&" symbol correctly.

The reason for this is that ServiceNow uses HTML encoding to prevent potential conflicts or issues with special characters that could be misinterpreted in the system.

Therefore, if you want to display "Page & Caption" in the banner, you should enter it as "Page & Caption" in the page header caption field.

Hi @Chirag_cms27 ,

 

Note from servicenow docs 

 

Page header captionChange the text that appears next to your logo.
Browser tab titleChange the text that appears on the browser tab.

 

Enter the text in Browser tab title and it won't change  "&" symbols to & as shown below
