What does the create operation wildcard ACL rule (*.*) use for permissions?

The create operation wildcard ACL rule (.) utilizes the same permissions as the write operation. In ServiceNow, ACL (Access Control List) rules determine what operations users can perform on specific records or tables. The create operation is inherently associated with the writing of new records, which is why it aligns with the permissions granted for the write operation.

By using the wildcard notation (.), the ACL applies universally across all tables and fields, meaning that if a user has the permission defined for writing, they will also possess the rights to create new records in all instances where this wildcard rule is applicable. This allows for a streamlined method of managing permissions, particularly when users need to perform both creation and updating tasks, as they share similar foundational privileges.

This understanding highlights the importance of correctly configuring ACL rules to ensure users have the appropriate level of access for their roles within the application, particularly when it comes to creating new entries in the system based on designated permissions.
