MatthewH.10249 (State of Iowa) asked a question.

Any suggestions to help me pull in the ServiceNow Assignment Groups as an OIG resource?

I've followed the steps in the following article and while I'm not getting any errors when I create or update the connection I'm not able to pull in ServiceNow Assignment Groups as an OIG resource. I see the auth token logged in ServiceNow with a valid created and expired datetimes. I've also tried the "Update Now" button for assignment groups with no luck.

 

Any suggestions to help me pull in the ServiceNow Assignment Groups as an OIG resource? Are there any scopes/claims in ServiceNow we need to set for the external OAuth connection?

    I worked with Okta Support (Case 01915658) and they confirmed that I was performing the proper setup steps yet Service Now Assignment groups still would not show up. They looked at OIG logs that I was not able to access and discovered that on the back end the system is showing us an error stating" SERVICENOW_ASSIGNMENT_GROUP validation failed: name: Path `name` is required."

     

    We took a look at all the groups in our ServiceNow instance and found that one had an empty name. We fixed this and then the ServiceNow Assignment groups started showing up in OIG under Settings->Resources as expected.

    @MatthewH.10249 (State of Iowa)​  - I hadn't attempted to set this up before being prompted by your post here.

     

    1) Created ServiceNow dev org

    2) Set up an Oauth client. Gave it a name and left everything else as defaults.

    https://www.servicenow.com/community/itsm-forum/how-to-know-my-instance-client-secret-and-client-id/td-p/488921

    3) In "Connect" to servicenow

    4) Specified my devorg + oauth client/secret

    5) Receive Auth Code grant request and granted access.

    6) Popup occurred to specify Access Request Teams and selected all my AR teams

     

    Once complete navigated into Settings > Resources and I see a new ServiceNow icon. Clicked it and all the groups are listed.

     

    There doesn't appear to be anything "extra" to do.

      Thanks but unfortunately it looks like the same thing I've been doing. I thought that maybe the ServiceNow Assignment Groups would show up after a few hours or overnight but still not seeing any today. I guess I'll open an Okta support ticket on this and might have to reach out to ServiceNow support. Thanks!

    When you are setting up the Oauth client in ServiceNow it does allow you to select an app and the constrain it to the apps scopes. But I am not sure exactly what that does or would do in this scenario.

     

    Definitely had 0 issues with defaults though.
