    Notification channels include email addresses, service providers for SMS messages, and mobile applications. You can create voice notification channels to support applications like Notify.
    注:
    If you are using the ServiceNow mobile application or a custom push application, you do not need to create a push channel for your mobile device. The system automatically creates a channel for the mobile app after you initially log in to your instance from your mobile device.
