      To use
      Webhooks
      :
      1. Enter a webhook name and a valid URL.
        Use only standard web ports. Custom web ports are not allowed.

          https://<domain name>/api/now/table/myTable
          where
          myTable

      5. The
        Custom Field
        enables you to customize a static field to use in any way you want. For example, you can set up the
        Custom Field
        to show
        PANW
        as a static entry in all your rows. This can be especially useful if you're using a master table for integrations with several vendors. It helps you identify the source of the incidents and tickets more easily.
      6. Under
        SASE Mapping
        , move the
        Do you want to visualize ServiceNow incident updates on the Prisma Sase dashboard?
        toggle to
        Yes
        for a bidirectional integration with ServiceNow. As part of a bidirectional integration,
        Strata Cloud Manager
        not only automatically generates incidents on ServiceNow but also gets incident updates from ServiceNow back to the
        Strata Cloud Manager
        dashboard.
        Enter
        ServiceNow Mapped Field
        data in the mandatory fields (with asterisks), and select
        Run Test Case
        to create a dummy incident. The test case helps verify whether your ServiceNow integration is working.
      7. The
        Please Authorize ServiceNow Integration
        pop-up appears whether you're using a bidirectional or unidirectional integration. Select
        Authorize
        to confirm that you want to have your
        Strata Cloud Manager
        incidents appear on your ServiceNow instance and ServiceNow incident updates appear on your
        Strata Cloud Manager
        interface.
      8. After you have successfully saved your ServiceNow profile, it appears in the
        Notification Subscriptions
        table, with
        Yes
        in the
        ServiceNow
        column. The
        ServiceNow
        column says
        Yes (Test Successful)
        if you ran a successful test case, and
        Yes (Test Not Executed)
        if you did not run a test case at all.
  4. Under
    Subscription
    , you can select all alerts present under an alert category, or you can select
    >
    to the left of the alert category name to expand the category and specify the alerts for which you want to be notified. To receive alert notifications through email or notifications streamed through webhooks, based on alert severity for an alert category of interest, select
    Low
    ,
    Medium
    , or
    High
    severity.
    The default profile receives
    Informational
    alerts for the tenant. In other notification profiles, you can elect to receive informational alerts or not.
  5. Save
    your changes.
  6. For
    ServiceNow
    : After you successfully save your ServiceNow profile, it appears in the
    Notification Subscriptions
    table, with Yes in the ServiceNow column. The
    ServiceNow
    column says Yes (Test Successful) if you ran a successful test case, or Yes (Test Not Executed) if you did not run a test case at all.
  7. You can have only one active ServiceNow integration at a time. The
    State
    column in the
    Notification Subscriptions
    table shows your active ServiceNow integration is Enabled.
