You are making a POST from your servicenow instance to another endpoint. As if i understood well you are doing an Outbound REST call. On the machine where the endpoint is hosted, what java version do you have? Does it support TLS 1.2?

[dundi]

Java version is 1.8

Is you trying to communicate with a system that uses a self-signed key? This may help?

Hi Dundi,

You can set the following property to false, this will cause the HTTPClient to not make the hostname verification against the ssl certificate provided.

"com.glide.communications.httpclient.verify_hostname"   >> false

Hope it will solve your issue
