These functions are essential for manipulating numeric data during flow executions, supporting calculations such as addition, subtraction, averaging, rounding, and more.

Key Functions and Their Uses

• Absolute Value: Returns the positive distance of a number from zero.
• Add: Adds a specified value to the input number.
• Average: Calculates the average of values in a numeric array.
• Count: Counts elements in an array of any data type.
• Divide: Divides the input number by a given parameter.
• Max and Min: Identify the highest and lowest values in a numeric array.
• Median: Finds the median value of a numeric array.
• Multiply: Multiplies the input number by a specified value.
• Power: Raises the input number to the power of a given exponent.
• Round: Rounds a number based on digit position and conventional rounding rules.
• Square Root: Calculates the positive square root of a positive number.
• Subtract: Subtracts a specified value from the input number.
• Sum: Sums all values in a numeric array.
• To Fixed: Truncates a decimal number to a specific number of decimal places without rounding.

Practical Considerations

When using these functions in your ServiceNow flows, ensure you select the correct input data pill types to avoid runtime errors or unexpected outputs. For functions requiring parameters (like Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide, Power, Round, and To Fixed), provide the parameter value to define the operation precisely.

For example, applying the Round function with a parameter of 2 on the input value 194 results in 190, based on rounding rules applied at the specified digit position.

Expected Benefits

These simple math transform functions streamline numerical data manipulation within your flows, enabling automated processing such as aggregation, scaling, and formatting. This capability enhances your ability to integrate, calculate, and report on numeric data efficiently without external scripting.
