| Tip |
|---|
When you connect EmpowerID to ServiceNow and configure your ServiceNow Account Store, the first time you run inventory, EmpowerID discovers all of the users, groups, memberships, roles, locations, companies, and user accounts in ServiceNow and creates them in the EmpowerID data warehouse. Subsequent inventory runs update any changes occurring since the LastTimeStamp value tracked by the ServiceNow connector. |
Create a ServiceNow Account Store in EmpowerID
On the navbar, expand Admin > Applications and Directories and then click Account Stores and Systems.
On the Account Stores page, click Create Account Store.
Under System Types, search for ServiceNow.
Click ServiceNow to select the type and then click Submit.
On the ServiceNow Settings page that appears, fill in the following information:
Name — Enter a name for your account store.
User Name — Enter the username for your ServiceNow System Administrator.
Password — Enter the password for your ServiceNow System Administrator.
