    • The Event Notification Management Open API provides an endpoint to create, update, and delete events from the Events [em_event] table.

    The Event Notification Management Open API (sn_ind_tmf688) is a ServiceNow implementation of the TM Forum Open API specification. This API is based on TMF688 Event Management API User Guide v4.0.0. You can locate additional alarm information in the TMF642 Alarm Management API User Guide.

    This API can be extended to make customizations around required parameters, request body validation, additional REST operations, and field mappings. For more information, see the Event Notification Management Open API Developer Guide.

    Event Notification Management Open API – POST instance_name/scope_id/GUID

    Places the payload of the associated request in the NowMQ queue. This queue is then processed in the background to create, update, and delete events within the Events [em_event] table.

    This endpoint is different than other endpoints in the ServiceNow platform. Instead of having an endpoint for each specific task, such as create, update, and delete, there's only a single endpoint for all functionality. The parameter eventType in the call payload determines the task to perform based on its passed value of AlarmCreateEvent, AlarmUpdateEvent, or AlarmDeleteEvent.

    The format of the REST call is also different than standard REST implementations. Each external system that will use this API, such as Kafka, database monitors, or other applications, must first register with the ServiceNow platform. They must also have their own webhook in place that uses the information provided during registration to generate the signature required to call this endpoint, including the instance_name, application scope_id, and unique GUID. The GUID identifies the external network system that the request came from.

    The payload that you pass for this endpoint must correlate with the payload that is defined in the TMFAlarmAPIConstants script include for the corresponding eventType parameter value. Any parameters that are passed in the payload and not defined in the schema are ignored by the endpoint.
    • AlarmCreateEvent: ALARM_CREATE_EVENT_SCHEMA
    • AlarmUpdateEvent: ALARM_CHANGE_EVENT_SCHEMA
    • AlarmDeleteEvent: ALARM_DELETE_EVENT_SCHEMA
