ServiceNow introduction to remote table | ServiceNow remote table to retrieve a table from an external source
Hi All,
I hope you're doing great.
In today's tutorial, we will look into a great concept in ServiceNow: Remote tables.
Remote Table :
- You can create a Remote table to define a schema for the data you want to retrieve from an external source.
- Table definitions reside in the Now Platform, but rows, or external records, reside in memory.
- Creating a remote table is similar to creating an internal table.
- As with an internal table, you define columns and controls and assign application access. Unlike an internal table, a remote table does not get its records from the Now Platform database.
- It gets its records from running an associated script against an external data source.
Procedure to create Remote table:
- Navigate to System Definition -- Remote Tables -- Tables.
- Click New.
- On the form, fill in the fields.
