PDI Upgrade Instructions

 

We've officially entered the preview season for ServiceNow's Brazil release, and PDIs are next up: Brazil will be available on PDIs starting September 24th! So whether you're planning to upgrade your existing instance or grab a brand new one off the shelf, you're probably wondering: what Brazil features can I expect to see? Below is a short list of what should be present (or turn-on-able via plugins), including links to the upcoming livestreams where we will cover said features in more detail. Catch the streams first, then put everything through its paces on your own PDI on the 24th!
