Hi @sandhyasnow 

 

Plugins are software components that provide specific features and functionalities within a ServiceNow instance.

 

Why Do We Use Plugins?
 To Enable Additional Features 
To Extend Functionality – Plugins introduce new tables, fields, scripts, and automation that support specific use cases 

To Improve Integration – Some plugins provide connectors or APIs that allow seamless integration with third-party 

 

You can find more information about plugins here ðŸ‘‰ ServiceNow Plugins

HI @sandhyasnow 

  • A plugin is not standalone. It provides feature enhancements to installed applications.
