How do I get on the  Creative Server?

In order to get on the creative server you’ll need to open a ticket with IT on ServiceNOW. You can access that page now (then bookmark it, you’ll need it more often than I’d like to admit.)

1.

Once you click on IT in ServiceNow, you’ll want to head over to Access Shared Network Folder.

2.

When you're asked which Drive Letter. You'll be connecting to Drive N.

3.

The folder you need is NSDeloitteDigital.

4.

In order to add and remove files from the server you'll need Read/Write Folder/Files Access.

5.

And obviously you'll fill your name in here.
