* System properties: sn_ac.use.spotlight.score.for.requests, sn_ac.use.spotlight.group.for.requestsFor detailed description of the system properties, see
  [Automation Center properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/rFAVmkhNIpRcsYTjuAsIMQ "You can access system properties for Automation Center by navigating to All > Automation Center > Administration > Automation Properties .").
