Need Guidance on Obtaining Admin Access to Test Instance When No HI Portal Access Is Available

Hello Everyone,

I am currently working as the sole ServiceNow administrator/resource for a customer environment. I have full admin access on the Development and Production instances, but I do not have admin access on the Test instance.

The challenge is that I am also unable to access the ServiceNow HI/Support Portal, so I cannot raise a support case myself. As a newly onboarded resource, I am not sure who can grant the required access, and there are currently no other known administrators available to assist.

Current situation:

  • Admin access available on Dev and Prod instances.
  • No admin access on Test instance.
  • Unable to log in to the HI/Support Portal.
  • Unable to raise a support case.
  • Need guidance on the appropriate process to obtain admin access on Test.

Could the community please advise:

  1. Who can grant admin access to a ServiceNow instance in such a scenario?
  2. If no active admin is available on the Test instance, what is the recommended approach?
  3. Is there any way for a customer contact or account owner to initiate access requests without HI Portal access?
  4. Are there alternative support channels available when HI access is unavailable?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
