Hello All,
I would like to understand the functionality of the "Conversational label" field created in the item_option_new table?

Any help on this is highly appreciated.

In ServiceNow, the "Conversational Label" field in the item_option_new table (which defines variables) is used by Virtual Agent for conversational catalog requests, allowing you to specify a label that is used in the chatbot interface instead of the standard label. 

  • Example:
    If a variable's standard label is "Department", you might use "What department do you work in?" as the conversational label.
  • Use case:
    This feature is particularly useful for making catalog items more user-friendly and natural-sounding within the context of a conversational interface like Virtual Agent.
  • Limitations:
    ServiceNow documentation outlines limitations to variables, variable attributes, and scripts supported for Conversational Catalog in Now Assist in Virtual Agent.
