- Completely changed article due to activity set removal from ServiceNow share: 12/6/2023
Originally these integration packs were available for download from the developer and docs sites. However, they appear to have been removed. ServiceNow is pushing for the development base to use the IntegrationHub spokes that ostensibly replaced these packs. It is unfortunate in that while they were definitely unsupported the packs were still quite useful. Instead of retiring this article I instead updated it with the latest information from the docs site.
This was the original release information: Awhile back the ServiceNow Orchestration development team pushed out a little known "release" to the ServiceNow Share: The Orchestration Integration Packs. These are unsupported Orchestration integrations developed by ServiceNow (and were likely intended to be released as support packs). Instead they were released for us out on the Developer Share! Frankly, these are all gems.
What were the integrations?
- Artifactory
- Bitbucket
- Docker
- Git
- IIS
- JBoss
- Jenkins
- Kubernetes
- Nexus
- Nginx
- SalesForce Orchestration
- SQL Database
- Tomcat
- Weblogic
- Windows Folder ACLs

Remember that if you can't do it in Flow Designer/IntegrationHub, you CAN do it in Workflow/Orchestration.
Notes to Know Concerning Flow Designer vs. Workflow:
- Flow Designer is not the same as Workflow
- There is no migration path from Workflow to Flow Designer
- Flow Designer does not have a scratchpad object
- Flow Designer cannot do a "go to" on a previous step
Sad days,
