See what is compliant, fix what is not, and commit the result. {% hint style="info" %} Native ServiceNow application. Installs from the ServiceNow Store.

Open **Home** and choose a template. 2. Create a new blueprint from that template. 3. Add elements from the **Data Hub** or plan future-state elements. 4. Review fields, relationships, and compliance issues in the **Data panel**. 5. Use **Save/Update** to store your working blueprint. 6. If your role allows it, use **Commit Changes** to push approved blueprint changes back to ServiceNow. 7. Use **Presenter Mode** or shared links when you want others to review the result without editing it. ## What this help center covers * How to install the app and start a free trial * How access works and what each role can do * How Home, search, filters, and favorites work * How templates define tables, fields, filters, and relationship rules * How blueprint editing works from draft creation to save and commit * How compliance is measured in the editor and in Auditor * How to present and share blueprints safely * Which settings, accessibility options, and keyboard shortcuts are available * Blueprint-specific terms in a dedicated glossary * What ServiceNow admins should know about architecture, access, and data handling ## Quick answers The terms that come up most often: * **Installation and Setup** walks you through getting the app from the ServiceNow Store, installing it, and assigning roles. * **30-Day Free Trial** explains how to start a trial and make the most of it. * **Save/Update** stores your template or blueprint work in the app. * **Commit Changes** is used to publish approved blueprint changes back to ServiceNow. * **Presenter Mode** is the read-only view of a blueprint. * **Auditor** runs any template against your data and shows non-compliant elements and relationships in minutes. * **ServiceNow Administration** explains the scoped-app architecture, roles, storage, and admin responsibilities. * **Security and Data Handling** explains the app's in-platform runtime boundary, preference storage, and privacy expectations.
