Hi everyone,
I built a Chrome extension called Excel to ServiceNow for ServiceNow admins and developers who manage table definitions in Excel.
The idea is simple: if your team prepares table and column definitions in an Excel design document first, this extension helps reduce the manual copy-paste work when creating or updating tables in ServiceNow.
Chrome Web Store:
Search for "Excel to ServiceNow" or open:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/search/Excel%20to%20ServiceNow
Demo video:

What it can do:
- Create a new ServiceNow table from an Excel template
- Add or update columns on an existing table
- Validate required sheets and headers before upload
- Configure mapping for Excel sheet names and header names
- Support both English and Japanese templates
- Handle choice-list definitions from Excel
Recommended usage:
Please try it first on a PDI or non-production instance. Since this is a Chrome extension that interacts with a ServiceNow instance, I know security and trust are important, so I would appreciate any feedback on the workflow, permissions, and documentation.
I would love to hear from other ServiceNow developers/admins:
- Does this match how your team manages table definition documents?
- What field types or table settings would you expect it to support next?
- Is there anything unclear or concerning before testing it?
Thanks in advance for any feedback!
