Summary of Spoke Generator release notes
Spoke Generator is a ServiceNow Store application that enables customers to create and manage spokes—integrations and connectors—efficiently and with advanced capabilities, including GenAI features. It reduces implementation time and costs by allowing code-free spoke creation using various specifications like OpenAPI and Postman collections.
