Scenario:
I am attempting to:

1. Import data from an Excel spreadsheet
2. Identify the table from my visual task boards, presumably a Tasks table.
3. Import the data to this tasks table.

Has anyone attempt this or asked the question before for more insight ?

Would appreciate your feedback 🙂

Hi @Love N Sorry, I didn’t get the second point: “Identify the table from my Visual Task Boards, presumably a Tasks table.”
Because when we import data into ServiceNow, we need to define the target table upfront — that’s a required step before anything else.

Hi @Love N ,

 

We are unable to understand your question? Are you trying to use import set to import your data from excel, If yes, what is your query. Can you please elaborate it?

@Dr Atul G- LNG and @Nikhil Bajaj9  thank you both for your response.

My scenario would be importing data from a excel document (lets use do-to items as an example) so that I can create to-do's using visual task boards, what would the target table be in this case?

I wouldn't intend on sharing this with anyone so what would you recommend as a means to keep these private?
I hope that context helps clarify my question more?

Hi @Love N ,

 

Please find all tables related to Visual Task board and you can utilize as per your requirement:-

 

In ServiceNow, the table vtb_card stores the details of the cards displayed on a Visual Task Board. Other related tables include vtb_board, vtb_lane, vtb_board_label, vtb_board_member, and vtb_card_history. The vtb_board table stores the overall board information, while the vtb_lane table stores the details of the lanes within a board. 

 

The to do cards details (lines) will be stored in - vtb_card table so you can utilize this table to upload your data.

 

If my answer helepd you, please mark it- solution accpeted.
