Introduction

The SolarWinds Service Desk (SWSD) Service Catalog is every customer's go-to location when they need help locating approved services offered by their organization. Whether they are looking for the new hire form or the place to request a new laptop, or they need access to an application, the Service Catalog should be their starting place. Make this menu your first choice when looking for help or requesting a service from your organization.

All services

The All Services list shows you which services are approved by your organization. The services are divided into categories to help you filter your search.

Search for specific services

Three search bars located on your screen provide the same results based on your query. For example, if you are viewing a display of All Services and would like to narrow your search to Office-related services, you can enter Office into any search bar. SWSD will then displays a list that contains only Office-specific catalog items.

  1. After you have found the service you are looking for, click it to begin your request. Clicking a service catalog item brings you to the service request screen, where you can see additional information that may include a title, description, cost, and expected delivery time for the selected service.
