Certified Implementation Specialist - Discovery (CIS-Discovery) is a specialist-level ServiceNow certification exam. The blueprint splits the exam across 5 domains, starting with Discovery Architecture, IP Networks, Discovery Probes and Schedules. On exam day you face around 97 questions in 90 minutes, in formats such as multiple choice. The 20 questions below are free samples written to match that style: answer each one first, then reveal the correct answer and note which topics you miss. The CIS-Discovery is rated medium in difficulty, and most candidates prepare with at least 12 months of hands-on experience. Because every answer is revealed in place, you can work through the whole set without leaving this page. Work through all 20 samples before deciding whether to buy the full 97+ question PDF.

In general, Discovery can provide which of the following kinds of application relationships? (Choose two.)
A discovery runs against a Windows Server returning the following attribute values for the first time: name = WindowsSN1 serial_number = 12321 A subsequent discovery runs against a different Windows Server returning the following attribute values: name = WindowsSN2 serial_number = 12321 With only base system CI Identifiers configured, which of the following is true?
When designing steps with operations requiring variables, it is best practice to do what?
Which of the following properties define the maximum overall size for the returned payload that comes from patterns?
What would you see in the Discovery pattern log that you would not see in the ECC Queue?
CI identifiers can be viewed under which of the following?
Which choice allows the following functionality to occur? If this value is set to 1000 and a discovery must scan 10,000 IP addresses using a single MID Server, it creates 10 Shazzam probes with each probe scanning 1000 IP addresses.
Which best describes Discovery schedule of type Configuration Item?
A Discovery Schedule contains a /24 subnet IP Range and a Shazzam batch size of 5000. How many times will a Shazzam probe be launched during discovery?
For the Set Parameter Value operation, which of the following is used in the syntax to declare a constant, unchanging Value?
What entry point type must a horizontal pattern have to execute from a process classifier?
Which choice will populate the Location field for a discovered CI?
Which choice best describes a horizontal discovery pattern?
Which choice best describes what happens when, by default, duplicate CIs are detected during identification and reconciliation?
Which of the below choices are kinds of variables used in discovery patterns? (Choose three.)
The deletion strategy is set to ‘Mark as absent’ for related Disk CIs discovered via the Linux Server pattern. If a related Disk CI is discovered during the Linux Server discovery and then the same related Disk CI is not found the next time the Linux Server is discovered, the following will happen:
Which of the following is required for a MID Server to have access to automatically stay up-to-date with instance versions?
For the Parse Variable pattern operation, what is required to have two different parsing methods to populate variables?
Which of the following choices must be installed on a MID Server to run Credential-less Discovery?
As a first step in horizontal discovery, where is the Shazzam probe input placed in a request?
No. They are original practice questions written to match the format and topic mix of the Certified Implementation Specialist - Discovery exam, which contains around 97 questions. Treat them as representative practice, not leaked exam content.
This page includes 20 questions, each with its correct answer you can reveal in place. The full study PDF expands that to 97+ questions.
Yes. Open the answer panel under each question to see which option is correct. Answer first, then reveal, so the set works as a self-check rather than a reading exercise.
Not on its own. Use the samples to find weak topics, revise them against the official domains, then work through the full 97+ question set under timed conditions before booking the exam.
