While the ServiceNow wiki has been a great resource for those configuring the platform, there have been times when developers have been frustrated due to the lack of full documentation of the officially supported API library. When new functions get added to libraries, they haven’t always been added to the wiki.
Coinciding with the Fuji release, ServiceNow is releasing a new API documentation site. The documentation on this site is generated from the API code that ServiceNow creates. This means that you are always up-to-date with the latest API capabilities.
Of course, ServiceNow will only post officially supported APIs on this site. Documentation for the former packages objects will not be posted on this site as they are unofficial APIs and ServiceNow discourages the use of them as they may change or remove them at any time.
The new site is easy to use, and not only explains each function that is available per library, but also lists the input and output parameters as well as provides handy code examples. You can check out the API documentation today at: The ServiceNow API documentation page
This is good news. Thank you for the update!
Thank you John and thank you to ServiceNow team as well 🙂
This is what we wanted to see, everything at one centralized location.
Any plan to add Jelly things also there?
good question about the Jelly. I haven’t heard of the details there as Jelly isn’t a Javascript library like everything else on this documentation page. However, it is an API set. I’ll push on your suggestion!
Superb. John, the font size on your “Submit Comment” button is not displaying the entire phrase on my button (in Chrome). fyi.
Superb!!! I am more fascinated with a new dev instance 🙂
Thanks for sharing John!
