Which table stored the links from Entity to Entity Types?

• A. [sn_compliance_m2m_profile_profile_type]
• B. [sn_risk_m2m_risk_profile]
• C. [sn_compliance_m2m_policy_profile]
• D. [sn_grc_m2m_profile_profile_type]

Answer: (D)

This question is about how ServiceNow stores the link between an Entity and an Entity Type in the GRC/IRM data model. In ServiceNow, many-to-many relationships between two objects are implemented with an m2m table. The GRC domain uses a table named sn_grc_m2m_profile_profile_type to relate a profile to the types of entities it applies to. Each record represents one association, so a single profile can connect to multiple entity types and a single entity type can have multiple profiles. The other options come from different modules and link different things (such as a risk to a risk profile or a policy to a profile), not the entity-to-entity-type mapping in GRC. Hence the GRC m2m table is the correct one for this relationship.
