    New in the Zurich release

    Customizable email notifications
    Promote consistent branding by having admins create custom email notifications and templates, which are sent when users request something from an app or the request was changed or closed. In support, several of the standard email notification activities are now in the public scope, and a new Configure email notifications item is available in Guided Setup.
    New playbook activity to update record fields
    Enable apps to change several fields automatically on the submitted record using the new Update submission playbook activity. In support, a new Configure playbook activities item is available in Guided Setup.
    New question types for forms
    Two new question types are available for forms: Duration and Attachment.
    • Duration enables users to specify a length of time.
    • Attachment enables users to upload an attachment as a question. The Attachment field differs from the Add attachment option for the form, because the Attachment question type can be used in dynamic behavior questions.
    Granular configuration admin roles
    Several new granular admin roles enable developers to complete administrative configuration tasks without requiring the full admin role.
    Delete unpublished forms
    You can now delete unpublished forms from Creator Studio, which completely removes the record for the form from the ServiceNow AI Platform.
