CSA

Hi Guys, I applied for the CSA exam, which is scheduled on Nov 20. I preferred the offline Centre to give the exam. I need some suggestions on how I need to clear this with the first attempt itself. Coming to ServiceNow, a few topics I thought I was lagging on, especially on the integrations and ACL concepts. Can you please share some thoughts on the CSA exam?

Hi @smshaik22 ,

 

Read Ebook 2-3 times properly, it will be sufficient. If you still want some reference material then google - Falscards and quizlets for practice. No guarantee that answers will be 100% correct but you will get questions (Idea what kind of questions will be coming) and for answer do your own reasearch [DYOR]. I hope you will be following exam blueprint for topics to be prepared. If not - please search for CSA blueprint and start looking into the topics.

Hey @smshaik22 , Congrats on scheduling your CSA exam! 

Just focus on the fundamentals course on Now Learning. Go through every module carefully — that’s literally what the exam is based on.

A few quick tips:

  • Know the field names and where they’re used (for example, in tables like incident, task, cmdb_ci, etc.).

  • Understand the roles and which role can perform what action (like admin, itil, catalog_admin, etc.).

  • Be familiar with table names and relationships.

  • Don’t stress too much about integrations it is not a part of CSA.

  • For ACLs, focus on the basics: how they’re evaluated (table-level, field-level, conditions, scripts), and the role requirements.

Basically, the exam checks if you understand how the platform works.. you’ll clear it easily.
