# Introduction

**Add to Update Set is one of the most-loved developer tools for ServiceNow, used by hundreds of developers for more than a decade!**

Add to Update Set is a utility for ServiceNow admins that will add any record (plus attachments, translations, and many dependencies) to the active update set.

In the case of multi-scope record sets, the utility will automatically generate appropriate update sets in each application scope, bundling them under a batch update set for simple promotion to other ServiceNow instances.

* Appears as a link at the bottom of each record
* For adding multiple records at once, appears as a drop-down menu option on each list
