What is a sys_id?

A, not D
I don’t think it's D. A is the standard in ServiceNow, sys_id has always been a 32-character unique field for each record. D seems like a trick option because UUIDs can be longer in other systems, but not here. Pretty sure about A unless something changed recently, but nothing official suggests 64 chars.
B , sounds tempting since Business Rules work with records, but a sys_id isn't about logic at all-it's just how records are identified uniquely. Pretty sure that's a trap for those mixing up scripting elements.
Not sure why some keep picking D, but in ServiceNow sys_id is always 32 characters right?
A tbh. Saw similar in practice, D looks like a trap since sys_id is always 32 characters by default.
Official study guide and the ServiceNow docs both say sys_id is a unique 32-character string for every record, so A makes sense here. Haven't seen any real examples in practice or on mock exams where it's anything but 32 chars. If someone saw something different in a recent exam version, let me know-I'm pretty sure it's still A.
Its D, but I think that's a common trap-people mix it up with UUID versions. Anyone else think 64 chars?
Its D
A sys_id in ServiceNow is always the 32-character string, not 64. Used this in scripts and integrations myself, never saw anything but 32 chars for records. Pretty sure it's A unless they're sneaking in some trick.
D? I've seen some plugins mess with ID lengths, so not convinced it's always just 32 chars in every situation.
Be respectful. No spam.
