CAD Exam Dumps - ServiceNow Certified Application Developer Questions and Answers

In ServiceNow, when importing data from external sources, the data is first loaded into an Import Set table, which acts as a staging area. To move this data into an existing ServiceNow table (known as the target table), a Transform Map is used. A Transform Map is a set of field mappings that define the relationships between fields in the Import Set table and fields in the target table. This mapping ensures that data is accurately transformed and transferred to the correct fields in the target table during the import process. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Transform Map.

The other options are not related to this specific function:

A. Business Service Management Map: This is not a standard term used in the context of data import and transformation in ServiceNow.

B. Data Sources: These define the origin of the data being imported but do not handle the field mapping between Import Set tables and target tables.

D. Schema Map Relationship Builder: This tool visualizes the relationships between tables in the database schema but is not used for mapping fields during data transformation.

For more detailed information, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation on Transform Maps.

In ServiceNow, Application Files are configuration records that define the various components and logic that constitute an application. These include artifacts such as:

Business Rules

Client Scripts

UI Actions

Script Includes

Tables and Fields

Workflows

These artifacts collectively define the functionality and behavior of the application. When an application is developed, ServiceNow automatically creates and manages these Application Files to represent the application's components.

Option C is correct because Application Files are the fundamental building blocks that comprise a ServiceNow application, representing its various components and configurations.

Options A, B, and D are incorrect:

A: XML exports of an Update Set represent changes made to an instance but are not synonymous with Application Files.

B: CSV files are typically used for data import/export and do not represent the configuration components of an application.

D: An XML export of table records pertains to data within a table, not the configuration artifacts that define application behavior.

A possible reason to build a custom app is to fulfill a specific use case on internal processes. For example, you may want to digitize a manual process that is not covered by an existing ServiceNow solution, such as managing inventory, tracking expenses, or scheduling events. Building a custom app on the Now Platform can help you automate workflows, improve data quality, and provide better user experiences. The other options are not valid reasons to build a custom app. To avoid using a code repository like GitHub or GitLab is not a reason to build a custom app, as you can still use source control integration with your custom app development. To create a custom integration for a 3rd party system is not a reason to build a custom app, as you can use integration tools such as IntegrationHub or REST APIs to connect with external systems without creating an app. To replace ServiceNow base tables is not a reason to build a custom app, as it is not recommended to modify or delete base tables that are essential for ServiceNow functionality.

 Tables that extend a table inherit the parent’s fields. Extending a table means creating a child table that shares the same columns and business logic as the parent table. For example, the Incident table extends the Task table, which means that all fields defined on the Task table are also available on the Incident table. Extending a table allows for reusing existing fields and behaviors without duplicating them on multiple tables. Reference: Table extension and classes

Application Access is a feature that allows you to control the access level of other application scopes to your application’s data tables. By setting the Accessible from field value to This application scope only, you can restrict the access to your data tables to only your application scope. This means that other application scopes cannot create, read, write, or delete records on your data tables, unless they have explicit permissions through Access Controls or other means.
