CSA ServiceNow Exam Lab Questions

In the ServiceNow Service Catalog , the mechanism used to capture user input and options on a form is called a Variable . 11

1. Service Catalog Variables:

When a user accesses a Catalog Item (like " New Desktop Computer " ), they are presented with questions to specify what they need. These questions are not standard columns in a database table; they are Variables. Variables allow the Service Catalog to be dynamic and flexible without requiring schema changes (adding columns) to the underlying request tables for every new item.

2. Types of Variables:

To achieve the requirements listed in the question, a developer would use specific Variable types:

Select Box / Multiple Choice: Used for " Color " (Black/Silver) and " Keyboard " (Standard/Ergonomic).

In ServiceNow, when viewing alist view, you can easily filter out specific values byright-clicking on the field value and selecting " Filter Out " . This action dynamically updates the filter to exclude records with that value.

Navigate to theIncident List.

Locate a record withState = Resolved.

Right-clickon the " Resolved " value in theStatecolumn.

Select " Filter Out " from the context menu.

The list automatically refreshes, showing only incidentsexcluding " Resolved " .

A. On the list of records, locate the right-click on the Resolved value, select Exclude.

" Exclude " isnot an optionin the ServiceNow list filter menu. The correct option is " Filter Out " .

B. Click Funnel icon, click AND, Select Resolved, is Not State click Run.

Thefunnel iconopens the filter panel, but this answer is unnecessarily complex.Right-clicking and filtering out is faster.

C. On state column title, right-click, select Filter Out > Resolved.

Youcannot right-click the column titleto filter out a specific value; you must right-click on aspecific field value.

D. On Search, select State, type not Resolved, press enter.

The correct syntax in the filter bar is " State != Resolved " , butright-clicking is a more user-friendly method.

Steps to Exclude Incidents with the State " Resolved " :Why Other Answers Are Incorrect:References from Certified System Administrator (CSA) Official Documentation:

InServiceNow, impersonation allows administrators toact as another userto troubleshoot, test permissions, or verify user experiences.

Tolog impersonation eventsin theSystem Log, the system property:

CopyEdit

glide.sys.log_impersonation

must beaddedand set totrue(true).

Key Features ofglide.sys.log_impersonation:Logswho impersonated whomin theSystem Log.

Capturestimestamp, user details, and session activity.

Helps withauditing and security compliance.

Navigate toSystem Definition > System Properties.

Search forglide.sys.log_impersonation.

If it doesn’t exist, create it:

Name:glide.sys.log_impersonation

Type:True/False

Value:true

Save the property and test impersonation.

How to Enable Impersonation Logging:

A. glide.user_setting →Incorrect

Deals withuser preferences and settings.

B. glide.sys.all_impersonation →Incorrect

No such property exists in ServiceNow.

D. glide.impersonation_setting →Incorrect

Incorrect property name; does not exist.

E. glide.sys.admin_login →Incorrect

Official ServiceNow Documentation Reference:

InServiceNow, when acustom tableis created, the systemautomatically generates four Access Control Rules (ACLs)to control the basic operations on that table. These rules define who cancreate, read, update, and delete recordsin the table.

Read (ACL: table_name.*.read)Allows users to view (read) recordsin the table.

Without this ACL, userscannot see any recordsin the table.

Create (ACL: table_name.*.create)Allows users to insert new recordsinto the table.

Without this ACL, userscannot add new records.

Update (ACL: table_name.*.update)Allows users to modify (edit) existing recordsin the table.

Userscannot edit recordsif this ACL is missing.

Delete (ACL: table_name.*.delete)Allows users to remove (delete) recordsfrom the table.

Userscannot delete recordswithout this ACL.

Default Access Control Rules Created for a New Table:

C. executeIncorrect– Theexecutepermission applies toScripts or UI Actions, not table records.

NoexecuteACL is automatically created for tables.

F. writeIncorrect– " Write " is NOT an ACL permission in ServiceNow.

Instead, " update " is the correct term for editing records.
