Note: Journey Accelerator is available with Journey designer. You should not download/install Journey Accelerator directly. You will get Journey Accelerator installed (from Tokyo release onwards) with the appropriate version of Journey designer from the store, so they are compatible with each other.
To see functionality related to Journey Accelerator, reference the Journey designer store application.
With Journey Accelerator, ServiceNow admins can easily create templates (specific to department, country, etc.) that enable managers to create personalized action plans for key employee transitions, such as promotions, transfers, onboarding, offboarding, and more.
