I hope that can help.
No, MID Server is NOT mandatory for Azure cloud discovery. ServiceNow supports two methods:
- Direct API Connection (Agentless) - ServiceNow connects directly to Azure APIs via HTTPS without requiring a MID Server
- MID Server-based - Uses a MID Server if you have network restrictions or prefer routing through your infrastructure
Most organizations use the direct agentless approach as it's simpler and Azure APIs are publicly accessible.
Ports Required
For direct/agentless discovery:
- Port 443 (HTTPS) - This is the default and primary port needed
- Outbound connection from ServiceNow instance to Azure APIs:
- management.azure.com (Azure Resource Manager)
- login.microsoftonline.com (Azure AD authentication)
For MID Server-based discovery:
- Port 443 - MID Server to Azure APIs
- MID Server also needs standard connectivity back to your ServiceNow instance

I can try to look for, but project was developed on the client pc, so I can't export anything on close of the project.
