If you’ve been working with ServiceNow, odds are you rely on Agile Development 2.0 apps and plugins or you’ve worked closely with teams that do. This isn’t just "another product update." The upcoming deprecation of Agile Development 2.0 is going to be felt across nearly every organization using the platform, making it a massive shift for our community.
Why this matters for all/most of us
Let’s be real: Agile Development has been a core part of digital transformation and ServiceNow development for years. Most teams, from product owners to admins to developers and Scrum Masters, have built processes and integrations around these tools.
That’s why ServiceNow’s decision to deprecate Agile Development 2.0 and associated plugins in new instances (starting with the Australia AI Platform release in May 2026) is a game-changer.
While these features will stick around for existing installations for now, official support is ending once your subscription term is up. Eventually, by August 2030, Agile Development 2.0 (to be technically correct: com.snc.sdlc.agile.2.0) will be fully deprecated.
Everyone needs to take action
Now is the time for every team, admin, and developer to investigate their dependencies and start the transition conversation. While August 2030 sounds like it's still plenty of time your or your customers next renewal might be right around the corner!
What should you do?
Check your platform: Find out where Agile Development 2.0 apps and plugins are being used in your processes and integrations.
Get familiar with CWM: ServiceNow’s Collaborative Work Management (CWM) solution is the path forward. As of the Zürich Pricing Guidelines, it’s only available as a paid subscription, so understanding capabilities and licensing options is critical.
Start the learning curve: Don’t wait! Start exploring CWM now, so you’re not caught off guard when you need to migrate.
Talk to your teams: Everyone in your organization (not just ServiceNow admins!) should be aware of the upcoming change and the impact it might have.
Treat as custom code: If you decide to keep using these plugins and apps, be aware that they’ll become “custom code”. This means you’ll be responsible for maintenance.
