ServiceNow CMDB (Pro)
On this page
The ServiceNow CMDB connector is an Asset Connector: instead of importing findings, it reads Configuration Items (CIs) from your ServiceNow Configuration Management Database and creates a DefectDojo Asset for each CI, grouped into Organizations by CI class. No findings are imported.
Prerequisites
You will need a ServiceNow instance and an account that can read the CMDB tables over the ServiceNow Table API. We recommend a dedicated, read-only service account for DefectDojo. The account needs read access to the cmdb_ci tables you want to import.
Connector Mappings
- Enter your ServiceNow instance URL in the Location field:
https://{your-instance}.service-now.com. - Select or create a ServiceNow Tool Configuration holding the instance credentials (the ServiceNow username and password).
Each Configuration Item becomes a Record named after the CI, grouped by its CI class (for example, application, server, or business service). Discovery and Sync reconcile the CI list: new CIs appear as NEW Records, and a CI removed from the CMDB is flagged MISSING on the next Sync so your team can triage it. DefectDojo never silently deletes an Asset.
