In ServiceNow, to create a module that directs users to a Record Producer (a simplified form for creating records), you should use the " URL (from Arguments) " Link Type. This configuration allows you to specify a direct link to the Record Producer.

Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Module Creation:

Go to the Application Menu where you want to add the module.

Click on " Edit Application Menu " and then " New Module. "

Set Link Type:

In the module ' s configuration, set the Link Type to " URL (from Arguments). "

Define the URL:

In the Arguments field, provide the URL to the Record Producer. The URL typically follows this pattern:

arduino

CopyEdit

servicenow_instance_url/com.glideapp.servicecatalog_cat_item_view.do?sysparm_id=record_producer_sys_id

Replace servicenow_instance_url with your instance ' s URL and record_producer_sys_id with the sys_id of the Record Producer.

Explanation of Other Options:

HTML (from Arguments): Used to display custom HTML content. Not suitable for linking directly to Record Producers.

Content Page: Used to display predefined content pages within ServiceNow. Not applicable for direct Record Producer links.

Script (from Arguments): Allows execution of a script to determine the module ' s behavior. This is more complex and unnecessary for simply linking to a Record Producer.

While record producers are powerful tools for creating records via the Service Catalog, they cannot natively redirect users after submission. Redirection typically requires script hacks or custom widget configurations.

From ServiceNow Docs (Catalog Scripting):

“By default, record producers return the user to the catalog homepage. Redirection requires scripting using producer scripts or custom client logic.”
