Hello,

After Splunk_TA_snow upgrade from 6.0.0. to 6.4.1 we have an issue with data collection.
When we try to reenter password for snow account in the add-on, we keep getting: 
“Unable to reach server at https://xyz.service-now.com. Check configurations and network settings.”

We upgraded the add-on to the newest version (7.0.0) and tried out some solutions from https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/ServiceNow/Troubleshooting#Troubleshoot_the_Sp... but still cannot update password in snow account.

Also, we have noticed following socket timeout errors:
2021-06-29 16:47:03,365 ERROR pid=67397 tid=Thread-2 file=snow_data_loader.py:_do_collect:298 | Failure occurred while connecting to https://xyz.service-now.com/api/now/table/cmdb_ci?sysparm_display_value=all&sysparm_offset=0&sysparm...>=2020-12-15+21:08:41^sys_updated_on<2021-06-29+14:46:01^ORDERBYsys_updated_on,sys_id.

Do you have any idea how to solve that?
