This instruction describes the configurations to be implemented in ServiceNow to set up the BlueDolphin ServiceNow Connector for a single ServiceNow Asset Class to BlueDolphin Object Definition Type connection.

Repeat this instruction for every BlueDolphin Object Definition Type you would like to be sourced from ServiceNow.

NOTE: Integration does not support relationships, and it is a unidirectional flow of data from ServiceNow to BlueDolphin.

Configuration to be added to the ServiceNow

  1. Once you install the Template name - BIF: ServiceNow Entity -> BlueDolphin Object (CREATE, UPDATE) template, you are navigated to the configuration page.

  2. Take the value of the Webhook URL, object definition ID, and the workspace ID to create a webhook using this information for ObjectCreated and ObjectUpdated. Refer to the Subscriptions section for more information

  3. In the General Configuration section, fill in all the required fields by referring to the table below.

  4. Click Verify and Connect to confirm that the connector details are correct.

  5. If the connection is successful, it says connected in the bottom right corner, and the Integration Mapping field appears.

  6. In the Integration Mapping, map ServiceNow fields to the BlueDolphin object definitions you wish to connect.
    This is the one-on-one field mapping table from the ServiceNow Asset Class to the BlueDolphin Object Type properties or questionnaire fields.
