Push and Pulling issues from Github

I'm wondering how this would be possible to do - just as a side project for myself to learn API integrations.

I can easily retrieve Github issues by doing an API GET query to https://api.github.com/user/issues ; but is it possible to do this from Service-Now to create Incidents and update them? I'm not sure where to start. How would you pass the sys_id back? I imagine you would need a two-way integration with something in the middle to do the mapping?

I would think you could do this with a REST integration using the ServiceNow REST API to talk to GitHub. This would enable you to do the push/pull operations from within ServiceNow.

Thanks ctomasi I spent an hour this morning trying to setup Github OAuth in my Application Registry this morning.



Think i need more practice and research as I cannot get it to connect yet. But I am very new to working with APIs.
