Hi,
The ServiceNow platform checks the MID Server for a response every 5 minutes.
This link can provide more details for you.
Thanks,

the one that i am talking about gets triggered from Event Queue Monitor that runs every 1 minute. it calls EventHeartbeat Script include.
i do not have any MID server set up on my instance. so i suppose it has some other purpose.
Also, it is not an Event created in the Event registry table.

This is simply a status check that the system does. You would be best to avoid any modifications to it.
I did a little browsing in to the script include called from this and it does in fact create the glide.heartbeat event in the sysevent table (among other things.)

Thanks Chuck!
I don't want to make any changes to this one. but i definitely want to use its functionality of being executed every 1 minute.
is there any way where i can use this functionality on client side in an UI script?
