Policies and rules in Table Builder

Policies and rules define how information appears to users based on role and entries, as well as who can access tables and forms built in Table Builder.

Sections for working with policies and rules

The Policies and rules tab in Table Builder has several sections, but you can edit only UI policies within Table Builder. The other sections are read-only and contain links to manage their content in other parts of the ServiceNow AI Platform.

UI policies for tables and forms

Configure UI policies to adjust how forms appear based on roles and user input.

For example, you can use UI policies to make a field on a form read-only or required or hide certain fields depending on a user's role. Basic UI policies do not require any scripting. For more advanced actions, use the Run scripts option.

You can also use client scripts to perform all these actions, but for faster load times use UI policies when possible.
