Splunk ITSI and ServiceNow - Auto populate fields

taskar

Hi, I have installed and configured the Add-on for ServiceNow. Integration with notable events are working, incidents are created in Service Now. But I would like to have the fields auto populated from the notable event. See screenshot.

Is it possible to have a two-way communication? close the Notable Event when ServiceNow ticket is closed i.e.

Any tip?

Splunk_TA_snow/local/local/alert_actions.conf is the config file for populating the fields. But havent found any way to use use token variables such as %orig_description%, %orig_owner%, %orig_severity%, %orig_status%, and so on.

Could not run the action. Status: 500 (Internal Server Error) Details: Splunkd daemon is not responding: ("Error connecting to /servicesNS/nobody/-/service_now_incident/snow_incident: ('The read operation timed out',)",)

I'm getting this error, After Clicking Done on the same above screenshot

have you tried to use $result.orig_description$. That format was used for other alerting methods.

thanks for your reply. I've tried what you suggest - dont work any better. A workaround is to use Alerts instead of the ServiceNow integration in ITSI. Then tokens are working as expected. Rumors as it that a new integration with servicenow is coming Q1 2019. Fingers crossed
