Introduction

snow-cli is a cross-platform command-line interface for working with ServiceNow instances.

It is designed for:

• developers who need quick access to ServiceNow APIs,
• automation scripts and CI jobs,
• coding agents and LLM workflows,
• teams that prefer machine-readable JSON, JSON Lines, TOON, or CSV output.

The binary is written in Rust and is intended to ship as a single executable with no runtime dependencies.

With snow-cli, you can:

• manage connection profiles,
• log in using supported authentication methods,

• inspect table schemas,
• call raw REST API endpoints,
• run background scripts,
• search ServiceNow code,
• move data through export/import and seed workflows,
• generate shell completions.
