A Data Policy in ServiceNow is used to enforce mandatory and read-only field conditions for data that
is entered manually through forms or imported into the system.
How Data Policies Enforce Mandatory Data on Import:
Data Policies apply to data coming from external sources, such as imports, web services (API), and
integrations.
If a field is set as mandatory in a Data Policy, records cannot be imported unless that field contains a
value.
This ensures data integrity by preventing incomplete or invalid data from entering the system.
Example Scenario:
If an administrator configures a Data Policy to make the "Caller" field mandatory on the Incident
table, any imported incidents without a Caller value will be rejected.
Why "True" is the Correct Answer:
✅ Data Policies enforce mandatory fields for both UI entry and imports.
Why "False" is Incorrect:
❌ If Data Policies did not enforce mandatory fields on imports, incomplete records could enter the
system, leading to data integrity issues.
