| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| sn_glider.default_to_bundled_sdk | Specifies whether to use the bundled version or the latest version of the ServiceNow SDK when creating or converting applications in the ServiceNow IDE. If true, the version of the ServiceNow SDK that's bundled with a version of the ServiceNow IDE is used. If false, the latest version of the ServiceNow SDK is used.
|
| sn_glider.enable_ide | Enables access to the ServiceNow IDE. If false, access to the ServiceNow IDE is turned off across the instance.
|
| sn_glider.fluent_convert_enabled | Enables converting existing scoped applications that weren't created with the ServiceNow IDE or ServiceNow SDK to support development in source code from the ServiceNow IDE.
|
| sn_glider.git.attachment.extension.binary | Defines a custom extension for attachment files with binary content types (for example, application/octet-stream) to override the default gitdata extension. The custom extension
that you specify with this property must also be specified with the glide.attachment.extensions system property. Note: If you reuse an existing extension, confirm that the value you set passes MIME type
validations for binary types.
|
| sn_glider.git.attachment.extension.text | Defines a custom extension for attachment files with text content types (for example, text/plain) to override the default txt extension. The custom extension that you specify
with this property must also be specified with the glide.attachment.extensions system property. Note: If you reuse an existing extension, confirm that the value you set passes MIME type validations for
text types.
|
| sn_glider.pinnedSdkVersion | Specifies the version of the ServiceNow SDK to use when creating or converting applications in the ServiceNow IDE.
