Where on earth ServiceNow provides Incremental scan in Discovery?

[Suggy]

In ask the experts video, it is mentioned as - "unlike a full scans which can which scan every device incremental scans focuses only on the changes since the last discovery"

Where on earth is that Incremental scan hidden 🙂

@Suggy  Not sure of Incremental Discovery, but there is a feature like event collector (vCenter event collector), where an event collector is configured for a vCenter and start it. Inside it, it collects various events like VmDeployedEvent/PowerOnEvent and when these events occur, it generates an event and sent to ServiceNow and update CMDB. This is near-real time update.

@Selva Arun Can you clarify please 🙂

@Suggy  Today I came across, Delta data pull for Service Graph connector for Azure. This is enabled by enabling a property and that will pull only the delta. 

If this property is disabled, then the whole data is pulled. Here is the exact link with more details:

May be, they meant this, when they say 'incremental Discovery'.
