ServiceNow CAS-PA ServiceNow Certified Application Specialist - Performance Analytics Exam Exam Practice Test

You no longer have to activate the KPI Signals (com.snc.pa.kpi_signals) plugin. It is active by default.

If you do not want this feature, request a Now Platform administrator to set the property com.snc.pa.activate_kpi_signals to false. Because this property does not exist by default, the administrator must add it.

If you reactivate KPI Signals, signal detection resumes from the time you originally deactivated the feature, not from the time you reactivated it.

You can add multiple data sources of the same type for time series (including Area, Column, Line, Stepline, and Spline) and bar (including Horizontal bar and Vertical bar) visualisations.

The data visualisation component configuration adds more options and an enhanced user interface.

You can configure new visualisations in Workspace from tables and indicators using the Data Visualisation configuration.

From the UI Builder, you can add visualisations to your landing page based on Performance Analytics and Reporting data. Configure a new visualisation by dragging the Data Visualisation configuration icon onto the Stage pane.

The following styling options are added in the Quebec release:

* Show or hide a visualisation component header on a landing page, along with its label and icons.

* Change score sizes of single score visualisations.

* Set default, palette, or single colour options for data display.

* Sort on categories in bar, pie, and donut visualisations based on table data sources.

* Define data label positions and show labels that overlap on bar visualisations.

Creating a new visualisation type is not an available styling option.

When you select an indicator as the data source, you can filter the results by breakdown and breakdown element.

If you have the 'Label for unmatched' field defined on the breakdown source for a selected breakdown, this label appears in your choice of Elements.

Select the label to display scores that do not match any of the elements.

This option helps provide views into whether you need to create additional breakdowns or adjust data values.

You can rely less on roles and more on access control lists (ACLs) to secure Performance Analytics.

On new instances, you no longer need the pa_viewer role to view the following items. Instead, indicator and breakdown ACLs are respected:

* Analytics Hub

* Text Analytics widgets

* KPI Details

* Breakdowns on workbench widgets

Performance Analytics widgets: In general, Performance Analytics widgets follow indicator and breakdown ACLs.

Targets and Thresholds: On the Analytics Hub, no roles are required to create personal targets and thresholds.

Here are the available related lists on the baseline configuration when navigating to the Formula Indicators form: Breakdowns, Contributing Indicators, Time series exclusions, Targets, Thresholds, and Diagnostic Results.

‘Signals’ is not an out-of-the-box related list on the Formula Indicators form.

Use the Contributing indicators related list to navigate to the indicators used in the formula or their indicator sources. If you include another formula indicator in the formula, both that indicator and its contributing indicators are listed.

When you use Analytics Q&A, the suggestions from previous searches are now shown together with the suggested indicators, tables, and columns.

As you type in a query, Analytics Q&A suggests recent searches, indicators, tables, and columns that match what you have typed so far. Only the tables and columns to which you have access are shown.

If Analytics Q&A cannot determine which table you want, it shows you up to three likely tables.
