Important Considerations
Be aware that not all model providers are available for customers with in-country SKUs, and certain features may be restricted in specific environments, including FedRAMP and other regulated markets. Always check for updates regarding model provider availability.
Data Processing and Collection
The application transfers data from customer instances to a centralized ServiceNow environment, potentially involving third-party cloud providers. This data is managed according to ServiceNow's internal policies, and customers can opt out of future data collection at any time.
AI Limitations
