Selecting an application from the application scope list in Table Builder enables you to customize form views for the users of the selected application in the Now Platform.

Application scoping protects applications by identifying and restricting access to application files and data. As an administrator, you can specify what parts of an application are accessible to other applications, which helps to protect data and application files. In Table Builder, you and your developers can set an application scope when you are working with a table or form.

Changing the scope in Table Builder also changes the scope in the Now Platform®, and changing the scope in the Now Platform® will change the scope in Table Builder.

When you are creating a form, you must be aware of the scope that you are working in. Choose the correct application scope for a table, form, or policy. The Select scope list is near the Select Domain list. The scope defaults to the scope that the user is in within the Now Platform®. If your users change to a different scope while in a page, they are notified that they are in a different application scope from the one that the form was created in.
