ServiceNow (bi-directional)ΒΆ

Bi-directional ServiceNow integration streamlines troubleshooting ticket creation and management by linking incident reports directly to the relevant data in Plixer Scrutinizer.

When a Collection is flagged for ticketing, ServiceNow generates an incident that links back to more detailed views in Plixer Scrutinizer. Alarm Policies can also be configured to send notifications with optional JSON parameters for automatic incident generation.

Important

ServiceNow integration requires additional licensing to enable. Contact Plixer Technical Support to learn more.

Configuring ServiceNow integration

To configure a ServiceNow instance to Plixer Scrutinizer, follow these steps:

  2. Click the Add button and enter the following details for the ServiceNow instance to be added:

    • Unique name for the instance (used only within Plixer Scrutinizer)

    • Instance URL

    • Username to be used to connect to the ServiceNow instance

    • Password associated with the username

    Important

    The ServiceNow user registered in Plixer Scrutinizer must be assigned the sn_incident_write role.
