Lab #5: Install the Moveworks Update Sets
Overview

moveworks_userrole. - Estimated Time: 10 minutes
- Prerequisites:
- Lab #4 complete
- Admin access to your ServiceNow instance
- The XML versions of the Moveworks Update Sets
🛠️ 1: Walkthrough
-
Download the
moveworks.baseandmoveworks.aclupdate sets from the Moveworks docs site.

-
In ServiceNow, navigate to the Retrieved Update Sets page.

-
Click Import Update Set from XML at the bottom of the page.

-
Upload each update set you downloaded in step 1.

-
Preview and Commit each update set to activate it in your instance.
Commit the base update set (
moveworks.base) before any of the others. The remaining update sets depend on it, and committing them out of order causes errors.

-
Confirm that all required update sets are installed.
The core labs need only
moveworks.baseandmoveworks.acl. The Optional Lab: Live Agent Handoff needs separate Live Agent update sets; your ILT host provides those.
-
Navigate to User Administration > Users and open the
machine_adminintegration account.
