Hello Team,

I want to export data from the table: alm_hardware.list and need to save the corresponding values of Configuration Item, Service, and Service Offering in the Incident table.
While I'm able to retrieve the Configuration Item value successfully,
I'm facing difficulty in obtaining the values for the remaining two fields (Service and Service Offering).
How the mapping works and from where can I get the exact value, any insights or assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

HI @bondita1 ,

 

You can refer this.

 

  1. Service Offering: A Service Offering is a high-level representation of a service that is offered to the customers. It acts as a catalog item that defines the scope of services, pricing, and delivery methods. It represents the services offered by an organization and is used to create service requests and track service delivery.
  2. Configuration Item (CI): A Configuration Item (CI) is a component that represents a tangible or intangible object in an IT environment. It represents an item that needs to be managed and tracked, such as hardware, software, and processes. CIs are used to manage and maintain the IT infrastructure and are used to track changes, manage inventory, and plan for future upgrades.

Also Relationship details you can find out from CMDB_rel_ci (Relationship Table) table easily for all configuration Item, You just need to check with Parent or child.

Hi @Ram S ,

I am successfully retrieving the value of Configuration Item from the Hardware Asset (alm_hardware) table. Now, I need to insert values for the Service and Service Offering fields corresponding to this Configuration Item into Incident table. My question is, from which mapping table can I obtain these values?

Pleae find below screeshot:

@bondita1 I think there isn't any default relation between the "Service" and "Service offering" fields with the alm_hardware table unless there is any customization done. So You can not directly populate it. either you have to create a custom relation by creating a reference field or have to use any other criteria for the auto-population of those fields.Screenshot 2024-05-22 at 4.31.35 PM.png
