A: Visible to Just Me, Visible by All Roles is False Correct answer
B: Visible to Just Me, Visible by All Roles is False, role required is pa_admin
C: Visible to Everyone, Visible by All Roles is False, role required is pa_admin
D: Visible to Everyone, Visible by All Roles is True
Correct Answer:
A. Visible to Just Me, Visible by All Roles is False
Explanation

By default, when a new indicator is created in ServiceNow, its access control is set to be restrictive. The "Publish on Analytics Hub" checkbox is unchecked, and the "Visible to" field is set to "Me". This configuration means the indicator is only visible to the user who created it. The "Visible by All Roles" setting is also false by default, ensuring that access must be explicitly granted through roles or user/group permissions if the indicator is later published.

Why Incorrect

B. While "Visible to Just Me" is correct, a specific role like paadmin is not required by default; access is based on the creator.
C. The default is not "Visible to Everyone"; it is restricted to the creator to prevent unintentional data exposure.
D. The default is "Visible to Just Me," not "Everyone," and "Visible by All Roles" is false, not true.
