## Key Changes

* **NOW Design System (NDS) Integration:** Table Builder has transitioned from custom icons to the standardized NOW Design System icons, offering a consistent and modern user interface experience.
* **Enhanced Access to Table Builder:** Users can now launch Table Builder directly by searching for it in the App Navigator, improving accessibility and ease of use.
* **Improved Table Access Control:** It is recommended that at least one role with Read permissions be assigned to each new table during creation. This practice ensures proper Access Control List (ACL) configuration and prevents developer access issues.
* **Direct Table Access via Search:** In Zurich, users can access tables directly using search syntax such as `tablename.builder`, `tablename.view`, `tablename.sheet`, or `tablename.flow`.
* **Read-Only Behavior Update:** Read-only settings are now governed by the `readonlyoption` choice field, which offers options like Display Read Only or Strict Read Only. The previous Read only field is no longer editable through the UI.
* **Form Designer Deprecation Preparation:** Form Designer is being phased out starting with Zurich. It will be hidden and unavailable for activation but remains supported. Its features will migrate to Form Builder.

## Activation and Availability

* Table Builder remains available independently without requiring App Engine Studio in Yokohama.
* Starting with Zurich, Table Builder is available through the ServiceNow Store, which may affect deployment or installation procedures.

## Requirements and Compatibility

* **Browser Support:** Internet Explorer is not supported for Table Builder in both Yokohama and Zurich releases.
* No additional or changed browser or localization requirements have been introduced between Yokohama and Zurich.

## Additional Notes

* There were no removals or deprecations of Table Builder features beyond the Form Designer changes noted.
* ServiceNow's AI experience brand is now called Otto®, reflected in product naming but without changes to customer entitlements.

By understanding and applying these updates, ServiceNow customers can effectively manage Table Builder upgrades, maintain access control integrity, and leverage the enhanced user interface and functionality available in Zurich.
