SNOW-CSA UI, Navigation and Forms Practice Question
A user reports that a custom UI Action button labeled 'Escalate' has disappeared from the incident form after a recent upgrade. The administrator checks the UI Action record and confirms that it is active, has no conditions defined, and is associated with the Incident table. The UI Action is set to appear in the context menu and form button. The administrator also confirms that no UI Policies or client scripts are hiding it. What should the administrator check next to resolve the issue?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common mix-up: candidates assume a UI Action will automatically appear on the form if it is active and has no conditions, but they overlook the requirement that UI Actions must be explicitly added to the form layout for the specific form view.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Check the form layout for the incident form view to ensure the UI Action is included.
The UI Action is active, has no conditions, and is associated with the Incident table, so it should appear. However, after an upgrade, the form layout may have been reset or the UI Action may not be placed in the desired form view. The administrator must check the form layout for the specific incident form view (e.g., 'Default view') to ensure the UI Action is added as a form button or context menu item, as UI Actions must be explicitly included in the form layout to appear on the form.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Check the form layout for the incident form view to ensure the UI Action is included.
Why this is correct
UI Actions must be placed in the form layout to appear; after upgrades, layout assignments can sometimes be lost.
- ✗
Check if there is a condition on the UI Action that evaluates to false.
Why it's wrong here
The administrator already confirmed no conditions are defined.
- ✗
Check the application scope to ensure the UI Action is in the correct scope.
Why it's wrong here
Scope issues would typically cause the UI Action to not exist at all, not just disappear after upgrade.
- ✗
Check the access controls (ACLs) for the UI Action.
Why it's wrong here
ACLs control who can see or use the UI Action, but since it was visible before, ACLs are unlikely to be the issue.
