Is this a question or an information article?

If this is for information then I believe similar or same information is already available on docs, youtube etc.

Any specific reason to share this?

Hey @Ankur Bawiskar 

Yes, it's purely for informational purposes.

You're right — similar content is already available on docs and YouTube.

But I’ve tried to explain it in a simple and easy-to-understand way, just to share and help others who may prefer a quick overview.

Hi @Community Alums 

Can I offer a small suggestion? I know you don’t currently have access to write blogs on the ServiceNow Community, but since you're sharing your insights as a post, consider prefixing your title with “Blog:” — for example, Blog: My Experience with XYZ.

This way, other users will understand it's a blog-style post and not a question.
