@Bhavya11 

are you able to test from your laptop via Postman? -> If yes then you need not worry

It's the issue with Ansible team and they should check with their network team why they are not able to reach to instance.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

@Bhavya11 Seems to be a proxy issue.

 

Go to POSTMAN setting>>Proxy>> check the proxy server and proxy auth, username/password

 I belive you are using it on company's n/w , try your personal laptop + PDI combination.

Check if you have firewall between postman and your instance.

 

Try it from your personal laptop and check if it works.

Hi @Bhuvan  ,

 

 As this external system which is Ansible; for the testing purpose they are using Postman to update the incident. do i need to whitelist their IP address in our ServiceNow instance ?.

 

Thanks,

The best approach in such cases is check with External system (Ansible in your case) , how have they integrated with other cloud based tool in past.

 

I believe that will give you a better idea, otherwise there are quite a lot of possibilities.
