Hello all,
I want to write an integration with ServiceNow for a third party webapp. They want to display the tickets of the actual user (same username here and there, auth via LDAP) in the third party webapp.
The way I imagined this is that I either do a full oauth2 handshake and then pull the information with these credentials OR that I get some admin credentials in some middleware server and then try to impersonate the user in question to get the information.
But I could not find information if ServiceNow supports oAuth2 (as a provider) and/or if the API allows the impersonation of a different user?
Is there really only the possibility to authenticate via the API with Basic Auth, forcing me to gather a password?
Bye, Nils Drews
