How can I hide/disable the "Create Channel" and "Create Personal Notification" Feature in the System Setting at Kingston Release

Hi, 
In the System settings (Gear icon - button at the banner frame) we want to hide/disable at the "Notification" tab  the "Create Channel" and "Create Personal Notification" Feature. 

I know there is a property "glide.notification.preference.ui.enabled" switching between the UI's but that's not what we want .

Thanks,

Curious, what is the requirement here? What's the use case and rationale for turning this off for everyone?

Hi guys,

 

I'm looking at the same problem.  We are still relatively new in ServiceNow.  We are rolling it out in stages.  Right now we are getting ready to allow a new crop of users into the system.  What we cannot do is have people rerouting notifications to personal accounts, attempting to send notifications via mechanisms other than email (we don't support that) and most of all clogging up our support desk with questions about why their setups don't work.

I'd be very interested if there is a way to just turn off the create channel options.

Best regards,

John

 

Hope that helps.

Hi Chuck,

 

it will be okay when we can configure it like "only visible for admins".
Users should not create there own channels because for only e-mail notifications are used/allowed. 
Can be a kind of miss understanding for the endusers.
scenario: 
User create a new channel for mobile and switch off the for mail channel. He will never received mail notifications,right?
I know it's possible to create/adjusted the ACl on the "cmn_notif_device" table that only admins can to the  CRUD operations but the "Create Channel" button still appear in the notification tab, what's  not user friendly from my perspective. 
But at the end the user should have the possibilty to subscribe all other notifications by category

 

Any idea?

I love the idea. I don't see a way to do that via user preference or property today.
