A module is a navigation item that provides access to a feature or functionality in ServiceNow.

Modules must have a link type, which determines how the module behaves when clicked. The

following is a list of link types:

Assessment. This is a link type that opens an assessment, which is a survey or questionnaire that

measures the effectiveness of a process or service.

List of Records. This is a link type that opens a list of records from a table or a saved filter.

Separator. This is a link type that creates a horizontal line to separate modules in the application

menu.

Timeline Page. This is a link type that opens a timeline page, which is a graphical representation of

the duration and sequence of events or tasks.

The following are not link types, but other module attributes or field types:

List of Records, Separator, Catalog Type, Roles. These are not link types, but a combination of a link

type (List of Records), a module attribute (Separator), a field type (Catalog Type), and a user attribute

(Roles).

List of Records, Content Page, Order, URL (from arguments:). These are not link types, but a

combination of a link type (List of Records), a module attribute (Content Page), a field name (Order),

and a link type argument (URL).

Assessment, List of Records, Content Page, Roles. These are not link types, but a combination of a

link type (Assessment), a link type (List of Records), a module attribute (Content Page), and a user

attribute (Roles). Reference: Modules, Create a Module
