Prisma Access supports ServiceNow, an Incident management platform that provides a common
framework for managing incidents and notifying you about AI-powered ADEM, ADEM, SD-WAN,
and Prisma Access Incidents through ServiceNow tickets. Any incident that Prisma Access
creates will automatically create a ticket on ServiceNow. When Prisma Access scans your
environment and detects a problem, it generates an alert and pushes it to ServiceNow as
a ticket, and when you dismiss an alert, Prisma Access sends a state change notification
to update the ticket status on ServiceNow.
ServiceNow has two types of integration: Bidirectional and unidirectional. A
bidirectional integration means you’re pushing data to ServiceNow as well as getting
data from ServiceNow. In a unidirectional integration, you’re only pushing data to
ServiceNow.
Before You Proceed with ServiceNow Integration
Before you proceed with your ServiceNow integration, this integration may
require cross-border data transfers. If your ServiceNow instance, your Prisma SASE
instance, or your Prisma SASE interface users are located in multiple countries, you
need to consent to and authorize any cross-border transfers of data.
Although Prisma Access ingests ServiceNow data to display it on the Prisma
SASE dashboard, we don't store any of the data.
Bidirectional Integration in ServiceNow
Bidirectional Integration has four fields in the ServiceNow
Mapped Field, three of which are mandatory if you opt for
bidirectional integration.
ServiceNow Ticket ID: Mandatory
ServiceNow Operational Status: Mandatory
ServiceNow Priority: Mandatory
ServiceNow Assigned To: Optional. This field could
have information such as name or email address
Set Up ServiceNow Integration
To set up a successful ServiceNow integration, we recommend that you change
the maximum length of the ServiceNow columns to 300 characters to ensure
that Prisma Access doesn't truncate the data.
From the ServiceNow Tables & Columns page, go to Table
Names, and select your <SASE -SNOW> table (see
highlighted table name in the following image).
