A user should be able to send an email from a third-party application (personal email for testing purposes since this is for evaluation) to their ServiceNow personal instance and it would automatically create a request using the Catalog Item SSL Certification.

Please see email template below for the email that will be sent to ServiceNow.

Subject: SSL Certification

Body:

Hello,

Please review the termination request details for the existing Associate below.

Requested for: Fred Luddy

When do you need this: This week

If you have any additional questions, please contact the HR Operations Team.

Attach a Workflow to Catalog Item SSL Certification: 

  1. Requested for - Manager Approval  
  2. Catalog Task is assigned to Service Desk

 

  • Requested for field should be populated the same as the requested for in the email. (RITM and TASK level)
  • Subject and body of the email should be on the description/work notes. (RITM and TASK level)
  • If the user is not existing in ServiceNow, do not create a request and send a reply to the sender that the user does not exist in the system.
  • Workflow associated with the catalog item should also start/activate
  • Workflow should only end once the state of the task is closed complete/closed incomplete/closed skipped.

Hi @aniellacerna 

 

there are many examples out there which explain how to do this.

For example, the following video demonstrates exactly your use case.

Just follow the instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4ExyTBorX0
