Catalog Form with Approval and Auto-Population to Active Directory

[Ashok_Bandla]

Hi all,

I’ve received a new requirement and would appreciate your guidance.

The task is to create a new catalog form in ServiceNow . The form should follow this workflow:

When a user submits the form, it should trigger an approval process.

After the request is approved, three specific fields from the form should be automatically populated into corresponding fields in Active Directory.

Has anyone implemented something similar? Any suggestions on best practices or potential pitfalls would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Ashok_Bandla 

The recommended approach involves using a ServiceNow Catalog Item for the user front-end, a ServiceNow Workflow or Flow Designer Flow for the logic and approval, and the Integration Hub with the Active Directory Spoke for the final update to AD.

Below is flowchart you can use for your flow to setup:

If you are stuck in between do share with us we will guide you, but first give try.
