Show full answer Show less ## New Features in Yokohama The Yokohama release introduces multiple AI-powered **agentic workflows** to automate and optimize workplace service delivery tasks: * **Optimize Cleaning Activities Workflow:** Manages cleaning and maintenance schedules of maintenance cases based on space utilization rates, improving efficiency. * **Automate Map Updates Workflow:** Assists map administrators in bulk updating Indoor Mapping by autonomously retrieving CAD file sources and managing import tasks. * **Manage Temporary Space Closures Workflow:** Handles emergency maintenance requests by blocking affected rooms and relocating existing reservations. * **Help Manage Workplace Reservations Workflow:** Automates rescheduling and updating of event reservations including changes to date, time, or duration. These agentic workflows enhance automation and reduce manual intervention in workplace management. ## Key Changes in Yokohama * **Now Assist Usage Measurement:** Transitioned from a 365-day look-back model to a 365-day burn-down model resetting at the contract anniversary, starting with Yokohama Patch 5. This change affects how usage is tracked and reported. * **Now Assist Skills Default Activation:** Certain Now Assist skills are now enabled by default for new customers upon installation, and for some unconfigured skills in existing customers during upgrades (starting with Patch 11). * **Access Control for AI Agents and Agentic Workflows:** New configurations allow administrators to set ACLs that control which users can discover and trigger AI agents and workflows. The behavior of these agents can be set as dynamic or AI users, and their availability can be restricted to authenticated users or made public. ## Activation and Installation ServiceNow Otto for Workplace Service Delivery (WSD) is available for installation via the **ServiceNow Store**.
