Applets

Learn how to use applets in ServiceNow mobile. Applets are made up of several screens. The screens that are available depend on the applet. Screens have configurable components, conditional formatting, sorting order, and filters.

Applet templates

You can choose one of the available templates to create an applet. Each template provides a master screen, which your user sees when they select an applet. The template may include other optional screens that your users can access for additional information. All screens display information that is based on records in a data item.


	Calendar Displays a calender screen. A user can select a date on a calendar to see the records that are associated with that date. These records appear below the calendar. The calendar template includes a configurable form applet, which shows the details for a record that your user selected from the calendar applet. The activity stream screen shows the activity stream details for a selected record. The related lists screen shows the related lists for a selected record.
