  • You can enable the ServiceNow Components for Customer Service (sn_cx_components), Web Components for Guest (sn_guest_component), and Web Embeddable Core (sn_embeddable_core) to enable Web Embeddables on your instance. The application establishes related plugins if they aren’t already installed.

    Before you begin

    Role required: None

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > System Applications > All Available Applications > All.
    2. Find the plugin using the filter criteria and search bar.

      You can search for the plugin by its name or ID. If you cannot find a plugin, you might have to request it from ServiceNow personnel.

    3. Select Install to start the installation process.
      Note:
      When domain separation and delegated admin are enabled in an instance, the administrative user must be in the global domain. Otherwise, the following error appears: Application installation is unavailable because another operation is running: Plugin Activation for <plugin name>.
      You will see a message after installation is completed. For information about the components installed with a plugin, see Find components installed with an application.
