 Create a new ServiceNow session via credentials, OAuth, or access token.
 This session will be used by default for all future calls.
 Optionally, you can specify the api version you'd like to use; the default is the latest.

 To use OAuth, ensure you've set it up, https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-platform-administration/page/administer/security/task/t_SettingUpOAuth.html.
 
+If using OAuth, the client credential will be stored in the script scoped variable ServiceNowSession and the access token will be automatically refreshed.
