HI Community,

 

If I create an Incident via Postman using Table API, How to find out API and Request body in ServiceNow?

I have other scenario similar similar like this  Incidents are created by other integration system but other systems highlighting they have not sent the value in request body.

Hi Ramesh,

First, mandatory fields in Incident are "Caller" and "Short description" so these fields must be specified when adding a new record.

I usually use REST API Explorer to get the data body.

  1. From Navigator, go to "System Web Service" > "REST" > "REST API Explorer".
  2. Select POST and Incident table as follows.

  3.  Move down the page and click on the "Add a field" button.

  4. Add fields to send and enter their values. Request body json string is shown below the fields.

  5. Test sending a data and check to see that the record is inserted. If a record is inserted, copy the json string and use it in request body changing the values to those required.
