ServiceNow CMDB inventory

ServiceNow CMDB syncs configuration items into Flow’s organization asset inventory. The asset source is organization-wide.

Prerequisites

  • A ServiceNow administrator who can grant read access to the configuration items you want in Flow.
  • A Flow admin who can open Integrations.

Connect in Flow

1

Connect ServiceNow.

Open Integrations and connect ServiceNow. Choose All teams. Asset sync needs a connection every team can use. A connection limited to specific teams does not offer Enable on the Assets tab. Use the same ServiceNow credentials as ServiceNow ticketing.
2

Open the Assets tab.

Open the ServiceNow connection and select the Assets tab.
3

Enable asset sync.

Select Enable.
4

Enter the filter and start the first sync.

Enter Filter scope. Only configuration items that match this filter sync into Flow. Select Save and start first sync.
5

Review the result.

Review the asset count and source status under Assets.

Capabilities

  • Configuration item inventory
  • Organization-wide asset source
  • Assignment decisions that stay in Flow when ServiceNow syncs again

Sync and behavior

  • Reconnecting the source keeps existing asset history.
  • Disconnecting the source preserves historical assets while stopping new syncs.
