Use Powershell to create automatic ticket in ServiceNow

[peterkiers]

Hi,

I would like to use PowerShell to create automaticly an ticket in ServiceNow. I have read that i need a ServiceNow-module

in order to access ServiceNow from Powershell.

Where can i get a ServiceNow-module?

Greetings,

HI Peter,

I think you're referring to REST API Explorer:

System Web Services -> REST -> REST API Explorer

There you have at the bottom a Powershell example as well:

No, what i would like is to create a powershell script and after execute it it will create a new ticket in ServiceNow.

But how can you access the ServiceNow functions with Powershell ? I have learned that you need a servicenow

module which has all the functions of servicenow. But where can i get that module? Greetings, Peter Kiers

Yes, what I pointed you out was the REST API which provides a way to access from externally the ServiceNow instance and do operations:

With REST API you can create/delete/query tables in ServiceNow. The REST API Explorer is there to help you understand how to it works, and still our docs show all available methods for a table for example:
