Where to identify the "hints" text for fields against a table?

[SB87]

I'm trying to gather descriptions for various tables and fields. The hint text seems like a potential way of extracting this, at least for those that have this attribute populated.

How would I go about getting the hint text via the ServiceNow UI? I have checked the Dictionary but can't seem to find a column for hint.

Kind regards,

Hi @SB87 ,

By hints you cannot achieve. The best is using a report.

Please follow the steps: https://docs.servicenow.com/en-US/bundle/utah-now-intelligence/page/use/reporting/task/admin-table-f...

Hi @SB87 

Go to configure label by right clicking on field name and you can get hint text if it is configured

Then find hint text if present
