    About this task

    The Product Configuration console organizes the configuration work into modules and displays progress in the configuration summary. You can leave and resume the configuration at any time. For the Moveworks chat bot connection step in detail, see Configure the Moveworks chat bot for Employee Slate.

    Procedure

    1. From the platform administrator home page, select View product overview on the Employee Slate for Moveworks card.
      The Product Hub page opens and lists the plugins associated with Employee Slate for Moveworks.
    2. Optional: Upload a prepared update set with the Upload Batch option.
      Use this option to reuse configurations exported from another environment. Skip this step to configure the instance from scratch.
    3. Select Configure to open the Product Configuration console.

      The configuration summary lists the modules available for Employee Slate for Moveworks and the progress of each module.

    4. In the Appearance module, set the branding and theming for the experience.
      Set the portal name, URL suffix, light and dark mode logos, and favicon. Set the primary, accent, and neutral palette colors. Use the preview panel to verify the experience in desktop and mobile, and in light and dark mode, before you save.

      Save the changes and mark the module as configured.

    5. In the Conversational Assistant module, enter the Moveworks AI Assistant instance URL and save the configuration.
      The page also offers a redirection to the Moveworks setup experience so you can further configure AI Assistant sources and behaviors. For the chat bot procedure, see Configure the Moveworks chatbot for Employee Slate.
    6. In the Canvas module, configure the default canvas view and the widget library.
      Select Canvas Editor to configure the default canvas dashboard. Use the widget library to toggle the visibility of widgets that employees can add to their personal canvas. You can also edit or create widgets from the library. For the full procedure, see Configure the default canvas dashboard.
    7. In the Documentation module, review the links to Employee Slate documentation for home page, Tasks and requests, org chart, notifications, and employee profile.
      Links open the ServiceNow documentation site in a new tab. Use the documentation to complete feature-specific configurations that aren't part of the Product Configuration console.
    8. Select Package and download to export the configuration changes as an XML update set.
      Upload the exported file from the Product Hub page of another environment with the Upload Batch option. Use this export to promote configurations from a lower environment to production.

    Result

    Employee Slate for Moveworks is configured with the branding, Moveworks AI Assistant connection, canvas layout, and widget library that you set. Employees can open the configured portal and interact with the Moveworks AI Assistant.
