    Connect ServiceNow to Odeus to manage incidents, tasks, and configuration items from your conversations

    Overview

    ServiceNow is an IT service management platform for operations automation and workflow orchestration. Once connected, you can use Odeus to create and manage incidents, search tasks, look up users and groups, and query configuration items directly from your conversations.

    Authentication: OAuth Category: IT Service Management Availability: All workspace plans

    Prerequisites

    • A ServiceNow instance with admin access
    • An OAuth application registered on your ServiceNow instance (required before connecting)

    Setup

    Follow [ServiceNow's OAuth setup guide](https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/xanadu-platform-security/page/administer/security/task/t_CreateEndpointforExternalClients.html) to register an OAuth API endpoint for external clients. Fill in the name and redirect URL provided by Odeus, then save. Note the **Client ID** and **Client Secret**.
    
    
    
    Go to [Integrations](https://app.odeus.ai/integrations) and find **ServiceNow** in the list.
    
    
    
    Enter your ServiceNow instance URL (e.g. `https://your-instance.service-now.com`), Client ID, and Client Secret.
    
    
    
    Click **Connect** to complete the OAuth flow and authorize Odeus to access your ServiceNow instance.
    
    
    
    Tag the integration with `@` in any agent to start working with your ServiceNow data.
