Tricks with the ServiceNow Filter Navigator

The filter navigator sites in the top left modestly heading up the table of options. Until recently I've been using it to just filter the list below, then, someone introduced me to a couple of other cool commands you can run.

The navigator does more than meets the eye

Table based commands

The below six functions are all run against a table, for my examples I've uses sys_user, but any table can be used. I was able to find the New York documentation for this functionality here if you'd like more details.

Loading item in the same window?

sys_user.list Loads a list of all sys_user records
sys_user.form Opens the form view for a new sys_user record
sys_user.config Opens the configuration view of the sys_user table

Want to open this in a new window?

sys_user.LIST A new window of all sys_user records
sys_user.FORM A new window for a new sys_user record
sys_user.CONFIG A new window for configuration of the sys_user table
