    • Use an instance scan script to find and remove GlideEncrypter API calls on your instance. Removing these calls is a necessary step in deprecating 3DES encryption on your instance.

    Avant de commencer

    Role required: admin

    The GlideEncrypter API is planned for deprecation as of the Zurich release of ServiceNow. Removing GlideEncrypter calls from your script is also a necessary step before deprecating 3DES encryption on your instance.

      Remarque :
      You do not need to modify base system (out-of-box) records if you have not made any changes to them. These records are handled by ServiceNow.
    8. After removing GlideEncrypter calls from your scripts, run the scan again to ensure that there are no remaining calls to the API.
