SN Utils Does Not Run

Fix the 'SN Utils does not run on the current page' message by switching to the OnPrem version.

If you see this message:

SN Utils does not run on the current page!

SN Utils does not run message placeholder

you are using the standard SN Utils extension on a domain outside *.service-now.com. The fix is to switch to SN Utils OnPrem.

If you want to quickly verify which version matches your browser and domain setup, use the install page.

Why This Happens

The standard extension only runs on *.service-now.com domains. If your instance uses a custom domain (for example sn.acme.com), a local IP address, or localhost, the standard version won't activate.

Fix: Switch to SN Utils OnPrem

We recommend uninstalling the standard version and replacing it with OnPrem. Running both at the same time can cause conflicts and unexpected behavior.

  1. Uninstall the standard SN Utils extension from your browser
  2. Install SN Utils OnPrem from the install page:

Install SN Utils OnPrem →

  1. Reload your ServiceNow instance — the extension should now load correctly

The OnPrem version works on all domains, including *.service-now.com, so you don't lose anything by switching.

Browser Availability

BrowserOnPrem Available
Chrome / ChromiumYes

Safari does not have an OnPrem version. For custom domain instances, use Chrome, Edge, or Firefox instead.

Still Not Working?

If you still have issues after switching to OnPrem:

  1. Make sure you fully removed the standard version (not just disabled)
  2. Restart your browser after installing OnPrem
  3. Check that OnPrem is enabled for your instance URL in the browser's extension settings
