Update Set selection for non-admins

[quanha]

Does anyone know if it is possible to allow non-admins the ability to select an update set? The use case for this is that we have multiple users with the workflow admin and catalog admin roles and we would like to easily capture their work on workflows and new catalog items in unique update sets that they are able to select. These users do not have the administrator role, nor do we want them to have that role.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Quan,

This should be easy to implement by following the steps on this wiki page:

Administering Update Sets - ServiceNow Wiki

You need to navigate to the sys_property_list.do page and look for the glide.ui.update_set_picker.role property. Here you can set the role that you would like to give the access to.

Let me know if you get stuck.

Cheers, Adam

Thanks so much for pointing out the article, Adam! It works perfectly.

Hi Adam, I am using UI16 on Istanbul and this property does not exist. I am trying to get workflow editors work to be captured in an update set and not giuve them the admin role.

I have created a new role and added it to the ACLs for being able to read and write to the sys_update_set table but cannot get it to display the update sets in the Sytem settings menu. I have also tried adding a User preference for the user themselves to to display it in the header - glide.ui.update_set_picker.in_header, but again no luck.

Can you or anyone else help?

Corinne,

Did you end up finding out a way to get this to work?

Best,
