    • Use the playbook available with the SGC Central application to set up the Service Graph Connector for Jamf for pulling in Jamf data into the CMDB.

    시작하기 전에

    Install Service Graph Connector for Jamf version 2.13.0 or later from the ServiceNow Store. For ServiceNow Store installation steps, see Install a ServiceNow Store application.
    When using client credentials for authentication, obtain the OAuth credentials from your Jamf administrator. Make a note of the following details:
    • Application (client) ID
    • Client Secret

    If using Client Credentials authentication in Jamf Pro, you need to use the API Roles and Clients functionality. For more details, refer to the API Roles and Clients section in the Jamf documentation. When creating a new API client in the Jamf environment, the Access token lifetime field on the form for creating a client enables setting how long the token remains valid. The default is 60 seconds, but due to ServiceNow AI Platform limitations, the value must be set to more than 60 seconds. Setting the token lifetime to 3600 seconds (1 hour) helps prevent potential issues.
