# Request client software distribution {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Client software distribution requires the Orchestration - Client Software
Distribution plugin (com.snc.orchestration.client_sf_distribution), which is available by
request with a subscription to Integration Hub.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

The Client Software Distribution plugin activates the System Center Configuration Manager plugin that contains the [Microsoft SCCM spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r1y0oo966lkDp59e1gEnLg "Automate management of user collections, device collections, and application deployments on a Microsoft System Center Configuration Management (SCCM) server.") actions to deploy or revoke software using an SCCM server. For additional plugin dependencies, see [Plugins installed with client software distribution](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ImQBFxABTtF5x03e6gIoeg "These plugins are installed with the Client Software Distribution plugin, if they are not already active.").  
Note:  
The Client Software Distribution plugin runs in its own application scope.
