Hi Irfan,
You are right we can create incident or any other task from the the event we are getting from Zabbix.
Below is how the process works:
- Zabbix sends event in ServiceNow event table.
- Where using Event rule we create Alerts in ServiceNow
- Later using Alert rule we then create any task ex: Incident.
Other way to do this is , You need to create custom table in ServiceNow to pass events from Zabbix to custom table from there using Business rule you need to create Incident.
Whichever way you want yours/Client choice.
Please mark correct if this gave your answer.

HI Irfan,
This is simple integration from ServiceNow to zabbix.
You dont have to do much in this .There is already OOB connector instance available in ServiceNow , you just need to configure.
Main thing you need is the credentials to access Zabbix.
Credential procedure :
Procedure
- Navigate to Connections & Credentials > Credentials.
- Click New.
- Select Basic Auth Credential.
- On the form, fill in the fields.
Instance create procedure :
Procedure
- Navigate to Event Management > Event Connectors (Pull) > Connector Instances.
- Click New.
- On the form, fill in the fields.
Remember to create connector instance values after saving Connector instance .
Got to below link for field and more details.

Sandeep,
Basically we are integrating Zabbix with Incident Management. If they get any alert we want to create an Incident in Servicenow
