My library Knowledge Sources To Go is very popular, but it was intended mainly as a thematically grouped guide to standard sources and was provided by me as a PDF file. For certain topics, however, there is so much content that I can no longer include it in that document, as it cannot continue to grow forever.
For this reason, I have decided to handle such topics in individual community articles like this one instead.
What are Guided Tours?
Guided tours help train and onboard users within the ServiceNow user interface (UI). Each tour contains a series of interactive steps that help users complete online tasks within their browser window. Administrators can create tours for ServiceNow applications, service portals, and custom applications. For example, you can create a tour to represent a training model for specific policies and processes, such as creating an incident or reviewing change requests.
