Steps for integrating Servicenow and Azure Data factory

[Gayathri5]

Hi Experts,

I am new to Snow to Azure Datafactory integration, i wanted to know what are the steps if azure want's to fetch incident table data from servicenow.

I had gone through some docs and understood we have 2 options

1.ServiceNow Connector out of the box(this option will be useful if we are handling incident and problem tables)
2.REST API Connector(if we are dealing with user defined tables)

Could any one suggest which one we should opt and tell me what is the procedure  for "Basic" and "ÖUATH 2", what exactly the difference btn these 2 authentication.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Gayathri

Hi,

Let me try to give you simple definitions.

1. what is Basic authentication ?

Basic authentication is the simplest form of authentication which requires only user name and password to authenticate and start communication with other systems.

2. What is OAuth 2.0 Authentication?

OAuth 2.0 is the modern form of authentication where IDP provides the token based access instead of user credentials which additional security parameters like expiry date of token and limit to only required application/data.

3. what is Difference between of it?
