Can anyone explain the use of this system property (sn_wsd_visitor.visitor_inbound_email), in practice?  I can see from documentation:

This property enables you to specify a generic email address to send or receive visitor requests.

 

But what does this actually mean in practice?

Hello @Kiera1 ,

 

Practically we can say that "sn_wsd_visitor.visitor_inbound_email" is the "Identity Anchor" for the Workplace Visitor Management system when dealing with external email interactions.

 

 

  • Without this property: The email might appear to come from your generic system address (e.g., dev12345@service-now.com).

  • With this property: You can mask the sender so the visitor sees a recognizable address, like office-concierge@yourcompany.com. This improves the professional "first impression" before the guest even arrives.

 

If my response helped mark as helpful and accept the solution.
