Hi @Chaitanya46 ,
For ScienceLogic SL1 – Event Integration (x_sclo_powerflow), a MID Server is not strictly mandatory, but its usage depends on how your connectivity is set up.
Recommended Approach (Best Practice)
In most real-world implementations, it is recommended to use a MID Server, especially for Event Management integrations.
When MID Server is Required
SL1 is hosted on-premises or within a private network
ServiceNow cannot directly reach SL1 APIs
Firewall restrictions are in place
You want secure, internal communication without exposing endpoints
When MID Server is Optional
SL1 APIs are publicly accessible over HTTPS
Network/security teams allow direct communication from ServiceNow
No restrictions on inbound/outbound traffic

@Chaitanya46 MID server usage will depend on the type of connection you are making with the other system. For JDBC, Custom script you don't need MID server. But if you are making connection type of Data Stream(Integration Hub), then you might need MID server.
