SNOW-CAD Designing interfaces and user experiences Practice Question
Which three elements are required to create a Service Portal widget that displays data from a table?
⚠ Common exam trap
ServiceNow often tests the misconception that a widget dependency is mandatory for any data display, but in reality, dependencies are only required when importing external scripts or styles, not for basic table queries.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
An HTML template
An HTML template is required because it defines the structure and layout of the widget's user interface. In Service Portal, the HTML template uses AngularJS directives to bind data from the server script and client controller, enabling dynamic rendering of table records.
