    Key Features

    • Connections Tab in Service Exchange Center: A centralized interface to create, view, request, and offboard provider and consumer connections. It includes search and filtering capabilities to simplify navigation and management.
    • Improved Consumer Registration and Onboarding: A guided, step-by-step onboarding process with clear progress indicators and actionable messaging to reduce friction, minimize support needs, and accelerate consumer registration.
    • Enhanced Federated Data Synchronization (FDS): Supports syncing Knowledge Base articles between provider and consumer instances, maintains sys IDs for CMDB data with transform maps to reduce inconsistencies, and preserves CI dependency relationships automatically when syncing. It also enforces compliance by restricting data synchronization from non-production to production CMDB tables.
    • Journal Field Framework Enhancements: Allows mapping multiple source journal fields to a single target journal field, including support for journalinput types. This preserves all journal entries during synchronization without the need for custom scripting.
    • Group-Based Persona Assignments for Remote Catalog: Enables assignment of Remote Catalog personas to user groups, extending existing group-based access management practices to reduce administrative effort by managing access at the group rather than individual user level.
    • AI Agents for Onboarding Automation: Introduced in version 1.0.1, AI Agents automate consumer registration task creation, monitor onboarding issues, and guide administrators through remediation, enhancing accuracy and reducing manual workload.

    Key Outcomes

    • Streamlined management of service provider and consumer connections from a single interface, improving operational efficiency.
    • Accelerated and simplified consumer onboarding with reduced support dependency through an improved guided experience and AI assistance.
    • Improved data synchronization quality and compliance, ensuring consistent and accurate Knowledge Base and CMDB data across instances.
    • Preservation of journal data integrity during synchronization without requiring complex customizations.
    • Reduced administrative overhead by enabling group-based access controls for Remote Catalog personas.

    Version history

    Version 1.1.4 - July 2026
    • Connections tab in the Service Exchange Center: Create, view, request, and offboard provider and consumer connections from a single location in the Service Exchange Center. Search and filter connections without navigating across multiple screens.
    • Improved consumer registration and onboarding: Onboard consumers faster with a guided, step-by-step registration experience. Upgraded consumers are automatically redirected to this experience to receive clearer progress indicators during onboarding, and actionable messaging for failure and delay scenarios, minimizing onboarding friction and support dependency.
    • Improved FDS capabilities:
      • Improve your connection experience, by syncing Knowledge Base articles between provider and consumer instances.
      • Reduce data inconsistencies by maintaining sys IDs for CMDB data and dependent relationships through transform maps.
      • Ensure CI functionality is preserved on the destination instance by choosing to automatically create CI dependency relationships when relationship data is received from the source.
      • Improved compliance through restricted data sync from non production instances to production instances for CMDB tables.
    • Journal Field Framework enhancements:
      • Increase flexibility in journal data synchronization between provider and consumer instances by mapping multiple source fields to a single target journal field.
      • Configure journal fields such of type journal_input fields alongside journal type, ensuring all journal entries are preserved during synchronization without requiring custom scripting
    • Group-based persona assignments for Remote Catalog: Assign Remote Catalog personas to user groups so existing group-based access management practices extend to Remote Catalog, reducing administrative effort by managing access at the group level instead of individual users.
    Version 1.0.2 - June 2026

    Version 1.0.1 - April 2026
    Service Exchange Onboarding introduces AI Agents that streamline the initiation of the registration process by automating the creation of Consumer Registration tasks, monitoring for issues, and guiding administrators through remediation if any are found. This reduces manual effort, improves accuracy, and enhances the onboarding experience.
