ServiceNow Integration

Device42 has added ServiceNow interoperability to its list of free IT hardware and software integrations.

See Device42 CIs in ServiceNow

Using the Device42-ServiceNow integration connector, ServiceNow users can synchronize Device42’s enhanced asset management and tracking capabilities to their ServiceNow IP-enabled configuration items (CI) data maintained inside ServiceNow’s Configuration Management Database (CMDB). This synchronization can be manually refreshed at any time by the user and also scheduled for automatic refresh at user-defined intervals.

In addition, the Device42-ServiceNow integration enables the creation of ServiceNow navigation controls that seamlessly create a Device42 application window from within the ServiceNow UI. This provides access to Device42’s capabilities not found in the ServiceNow application while, at the same time, combining ServiceNow’ s best-of-breed capabilities, such as workflow management, and IT trouble ticketing, not found in Device42.
