Description

Integration with ServiceNow ITSM enables CDC users to create and close incident tickets and updated comments on ServiceNow ITSM, directly from the CDC.

The current out-of-the-box CyberProof integration to ServiceNow is based on the ITSM Incident Management record.

This is a one-directional integration in which a CyberProof incident can do the following on the ServiceNow end:

• Create an incident
• Close an incident
• Add a comment
• Get an incident
• Upload an attachment to an incident

This operation is based on and supported via ServiceNow's Table API and Attachment API.

For bi-directional integration, ServiceNow's can use CyberProof's public Platform API.

CyberProof has provided CLI commands to cater to different user actions, as listed above. We also use custom adaptive cards, to display ServiceNow ITSM ticket information on the CDC.

Integration Type:ITSM Response
Information read:Incident ticket information from the CDC.
API Supported:API V0.7.16
Input:Incident ticket information from the CDC or comments from CDC users.
Output:Ticket created, updated on ServiceNow. Addition of comment on ServiceNow comments of ITSM ticket.
