Configure the default or maximum number of levels on maps. These are general settings that only sn_cmdb_admin can configure.

## Before you begin

Set the application scope in your instance to CMDB Workspace.

Role required: sn_cmdb_admin

## About this task

Admins can set default and maximum levels using the unifiedmap.map_search_filter.default_levels or unifiedmap.map_search_filter.max_levels property in the workspace-specific
\[sn_cmdb_ws_config_property\] table.

These workspace-specific configuration settings affect all users of the CMDB Unified Map page. The settings don't affect other copies of the Unified Map template.
Non-admin users can customize some aspects of their personal experience with Unified Map, but can't configure instance-wide workspace-specific settings.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to All and then, in the filter box in the main navigation bar, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">sn_cmdb_ws_config_property.list</kbd>.
2. Select the unifiedmap.map_search_filter.default_levels or unifiedmap.map_search_filter.max_levels property, as needed.
3. Select New or select the configuration identifier to update and then fill in the form.  
   {#unified-map-cfg-levels-on-maps__table_wjp_scm_nxb__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Config identifier | Unique name of the configuration identifier that specifies the settings for the current workspace. Note: The base system includes a configuration identifier named Default that specifies the default settings for Unified Map. |
   | Name | The name of the property that you're updating: unifiedmap.map_search.max_nodes. |
   | Value | Maximum count of nodes that are loaded when a map in this workspace opens. |
   | UX application | The top-level UX Application ID to which this configuration applies. This is the application ID of your workspace. This value is referenced from the record associated with the Config identifier setting. |
   [Table 1. Workspace Config Property tableSettings that configure the maximum number of nodes that can appear on a map.]

   {#unified-map-cfg-levels-on-maps__table_wjp_scm_nxb}
4. Select Submit or Update.  
   The updated settings appear in the appropriate related list on the Configuration identifier form, as described in [Configuring Unified Map --- admin settings](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/iiHEjKO8jhrIWqeFv7FQEg "Administrators can configure general Unified Map settings to control the initial content and appearance of maps for all users in a workspace.").
