Guidelines for ServiceNow sources

Guidelines for ServiceNow sources

Consider the following guidelines when you use ServiceNow sources:
  • The first time an incremental load job runs to capture change data for a ServiceNow source, the job retrieves and loads only the change records that are created after the date and time specified in the associated ingestion task. You can specify the date and time when you configure the source in the
    application ingestion and replication
    task wizard. However, when you resume a stopped or aborted job, the job begins propagating change data from where it last left off.
  • The data stored in some ServiceNow objects can be retrieved only if the API client is configured with the maint and nobody roles.
    Application Ingestion and Replication
    does not retrieve data from such source objects that require the ServiceNow Mass Ingestion connection to be configured with the maint and nobody roles.
  • You must have Admin privileges to access table APIs or aggregate APIs.
  • Incremental load jobs configured for ServiceNow sources do not capture change data for the objects that do not contain the sys_updated_on field.
  • Incremental load jobs and combined initial and incremental load jobs configured for ServiceNow sources do not detect and replicate the renaming of source fields.
  • Application Ingestion and Replication
    retains the masking configuration of source fields on the target. For example, if a masked field on the source contains the value 1234****, the corresponding field on the target also contains the value 1234****.
  • In the Secure Agent configuration properties, set the
    metadata_manager.jvm.ai.servicenow.enable.cdc.using.inherited.columns
    and
    task_container.jvm.ai.servicenow.enable.cdc.using.inherited.columns
    custom properties to
    true
    to include the child tables inheriting CDC columns from the parent table in the task.
  • Set the
    ai.servicenow.enable.additional.datatypes
    custom property to
    true
    , to enable the following ServiceNow data types:
    • Audio
    • Basic Image
    • Encrypted Text
    • FX Currency
    • Image
    • Journal List
    • List
    • Name-Value Pairs
    • Reference
    • Video
    • Wiki
    For the
    Reference
    data type, when the
    ai.servicenow.enable.additional.datatypes
    custom property is set to
    true
    , the
    columnName_value
    ,
    columnName_display_value
    , and
    columnName_link
    attributes are available in the target. If the
    ai.servicenow.enable.additional.datatypes
    custom property is set to
    false
    , only the
    columnName
    attribute is available in the target.
