Stop hand-writing encoded query strings. SN Power Search gives you a smart, keyboard-first builder — with live field autocomplete, AND/OR multi-condition chips, dot-walk navigation, and a reference resolver — right inside your browser.
Built for ServiceNow admins, developers, and power users who spend their days inside list views.
Type a label or API name — fields load live from your instance including the full inheritance chain from every parent table. Refresh anytime with ↻.
Stack conditions as dismissible chips. Choose AND or OR per condition with a toggle before adding — mix logic freely within a single sysparm_query.
Select a REF field to resolve display names to sys_ids via live lookup. Hit → to dot-walk into the referenced table and query nested fields like assigned_to.department.
Save any search as a named template for one-click reload. Export as JSON to share with teammates or import on a new machine.
Every action has a shortcut. Tab to navigate, arrow keys for the dropdown, Enter to search, Ctrl+Enter to add a condition.
Fields are cached per-instance for 1 hour so the popup opens instantly every time. One click on ↻ fetches fresh schema from your live instance.
One click on Import reads the active ServiceNow list view's filters and table — filling the builder automatically so you can refine without retyping.
Reuses your existing SN session cookie passively. Zero credentials stored, nothing sent externally. All data stays local.
No setup. No login. No configuration. Just open a ServiceNow tab and click the extension.
The extension detects your *.service-now.com instance and authenticates using your existing browser session. The instance badge turns green — no credentials ever stored.
Choose from built-in ITSM tables (incident, change_request, problem, sc_request…), CMDB tables, Users & Groups, and Admin tables, or type any custom table. The table is also auto-detected from your current SN tab URL if you're on a list view. Hit Import to pull the page's active filters directly into the builder.
Click the Field input or start typing. The extension fetches all fields including inherited ones and shows them in a searchable dropdown. Both label and API name are visible. REF-tagged fields show a → drill button — click it to dot-walk into the referenced table (e.g. assigned_to.department), or select the field directly to trigger the display-name resolver.
Pick from 13 operators: = != LIKE STARTSWITH ENDSWITH CONTAINS IS EMPTY IS NOT EMPTY IN > < ≥ ≤. Each operator shows an inline hint explaining its behaviour. Operators that need no value automatically disable the value input.
Press + Add or Ctrl+Enter to commit the condition as a chip and start the next one. Use the AND / OR toggle to control how the new condition joins the previous ones — mix and match as needed. When ready, press Enter to navigate your SN tab directly to the filtered list.
Click + Save, give it a name, and it joins your Saved Templates — available on every future popup open. Export as JSON to share with your entire team in one paste.
Every interaction has a key binding. Keep your hands on the keyboard and your eyes on the query.
SN Power Search collects zero personal data and communicates with zero external servers.
The extension uses your browser's existing session cookie passively via same-origin. Your password and session token are never read or stored.
Saved templates, recent searches, field cache and UI state are stored in Chrome's local extension storage. Nothing synced to any cloud.
Every API call goes directly to your own ServiceNow instance — the same requests your browser already makes. No third-party servers, no analytics, no telemetry.
