Stream Processing (Part 2) The second half of our Stream introduction. If you haven’t read the first half, I recommend you do so before going forward. In this post, we cover:
reduce flatMap and nested queries Using chunk to improve nested query performance Creating custom Streams reduce Conceptually, a Stream can be viewed as a collection containing the results of a query. However, sometimes we want to boil down (or reduce) this collection of records into a single value.
Continuing our UI Builder series, in this post we’ll cover theming and styling. If you’ve worked with UI/UX/Experiences in ServiceNow long enough you’ve probably come across different ways of theming and styling different interfaces. CMS, Service Portal, Mobile, and the platform UI all have their own ways to do theming in terms of changing colors, logos, fonts, etc., and the Now Experience UI Framework is no different, though it is different :).

Instance Scan Sometimes a feature or product sneaks up and surprises you with the depth it provides. Instance Scan is one of those sleepers in Quebec release for me. If you check out our Live Coding Happy Hour session, you will see some of what I mean. The scanning engine provides tools to check for opportunities to improve the health of your instance. The earlier you can present those to the developers, the faster and easier it is to align to those organizational practices to help keep your instance running smoothly and maintainable.

There are a lot of components available by default in the Quebec release in UI Builder you can use to build and customize your experiences, but you may run into a scenario where you need a component to do something that none of the default components can do. I do think that, compared to service portal, developers will not need to build custom components as often as they need to build custom widgets due to the power of UI Builder.
Stream Processing (Part 1) In this series, I’ve mentioned the Stream class, which is the way GlideQuery users process multiple records and groups returned by the select method. Stream is similar to Java’s Stream class and C#’s IEnumerable interface.
In all the examples so far, I’ve only used Stream’s forEach method, as that’s one of the most common Stream methods available. There are, however, other powerful Stream methods available that can enhance your code.
We recently announced our new a low-code visual app environment for creators of varying skill levels called App Engine Studio. App Engine Studio allows you to build an app from scratch or from a template, and:
Innovate quickly - Create business-critical workflow apps in a complete low-code experience. Delight your users - Convert ideas into superior end-user experiences across all the moments that matter. Scale without sprawl - Unite business and IT with collaboration, reuse, and guardrails for enterprise-class support.
