@Nanasaheb 

you need to use REST API explorer for this

Specify the Request Item and other fields such as short description, assignment group etc

Hi Ankur,

Actually i dont have REST API Explorer access so i am trying at my own level.

i asked Admin team to get this API url, they have access but they dont know how to do it.

if you know steps then let me know, ill ask them to do same from their end.

Thank You!!

Following will add a task to rtim.

import requests

SERVICENOW_INSTANCE = '<ServiceNow instance>'
SERVICENOW_USER = '<username>'
SERVICENOW_PWD = '<password>'


def insert_new_task_2_rtim(task):
    url = f'https://{SERVICENOW_INSTANCE}.service-now.com/api/now/table/sc_task'
    headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json", "Accept": "application/json"}
    response = requests.post(url, auth=(SERVICENOW_USER, SERVICENOW_PWD), headers=headers,
                             data="{\"parent\":\"" + task.get('rtim') + "\",\"priority\":\"" + task.get('priority') + "\",\"state\":\"" + task.get('state') + "\",\"short_description\":\"" + task.get('short_description') + "\",\"assignment_group\":\"" + task.get('assignment_group') + "\"}")

    if response.status_code != 200:
        print('Status:', response.status_code, 'Headers:', response.headers, 'Error Response:', response.json())
        exit()

    data = response.json()
    print(data)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    task = {'rtim': 'ab10cc9fdbef901083212a9a48961929',
            'priority': '4',
            'state': '1',
            'short_description': 'test task',
            'assignment_group': '8a4dde73c6112278017a6a4baf547aa7'
            }
    insert_new_task_2_rtim(task)

I tried, this creates task but not associating with passed RITM. RITM field shows  empty.

passed different variables information but same output i got.

any idea why this is happening, same thing i tried before that time it was creating Request, RITM and task for each api call.
