In the Now Assist admin, "Now Assist features" has options to configure the OOTB skills and "Now Assist Context Menu" in the "Now Assist Experiences" also have option to configure pre-defined skills, so what is the difference between them.

  • Now Assist Features is the platform-level admin area used to enable and manage OOTB generative AI skills such as summarization and content generation.
  • It controls global activation of skills across ITSM, CSM, HRSD, and other ServiceNow products.
  • Now Assist Context Menu is a UI-level configuration that defines how GenAI text actions (summarize, rewrite, generate) appear inside text fields in Workspace, Mobile, or forms.
  • It governs user-facing interactions, determining which skills show up in right‑click/inline text menus for notes and resolution fields.
  • In short: Features = enable the skill at platform level, while Context Menu = expose the skill inside specific UI experiences for user interaction.

 

Hope This Helps.
