Application scope

Application scope ensures that applications do not interfere with one another. Each application in ServiceNow has its own corresponding application scope. All the artifacts of an application, such as business rules, tables, and forms, and so on, are created in the same application scope as the application.

Application scope ensures an application artifact in a different scope doesn't interfere with the functionality of applications running in other scopes unless granted explicit permissions.

There are two types of scope in ServiceNow:

• Private application scope
• Global scope
