| Washington DC | NLQ in global search :   With the Washington DC release, Natural Language Query can be integrated into global search for English-language searches. To take advantage of this feature, global search must be configured to use AI Search as the search engine, with NLQ Genius Results. Now LLM fallback :   NLQ has an included Now LLM fallback in all locations where NLQ can be used. The Now LLM is a secondary method of interpreting queries, used when the initial rules-based method fails. This enhancement helps improve the NLQ query success rate. English is the only supported language for the fallback feature. Output Source in NLQ logs :   NLQ logs contain the Output Source field to indicate how the results were generated. For more information, see [View NLQ logs](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=view-nlq-logs&family=washingtondc&ft:locale=en-US). |
