This integration streamlines automation of Azure Blob Storage tasks such as uploading, copying, deleting blobs, and managing containers, enhancing operational efficiency within the ServiceNow AI Platform. Show full answer Show less This spoke requires an Integration Hub subscription and depends on several ServiceNow plugins to function properly. It is designed for API version 2023-11-03 but may support later versions. ## Key Features * **Blob Management Actions:** Attach blobs to ServiceNow records, copy blobs between containers, delete blobs, lease and release locks on blobs, snapshot blobs, and upload attachments directly to containers. * **Container Management Actions:** Create and delete containers, lease and release locks on containers, and retrieve container details and lists. * **Sample Subflows:** Pre-built sample flows are provided to automate common blob tasks such as moving, renaming blobs, and retrieving blob or container details. These can be customized by copying them into a new application scope. * **Connection and Credential Management:** Utilizes Integration Hub aliases for managing connection and credential information, including OAuth credentials, to simplify multi-environment setups and reduce maintenance when credentials change. ## Prerequisites and Requirements * A Microsoft Azure Storage account with appropriate permissions is required. Specifically, the user must have the Storage Blob Data Owner role assigned via Azure portal's Access Control (IAM). * Access keys and Directory ID from Azure must be recorded and saved for configuration. * Dependent ServiceNow plugins such as IntegrationHub Action Step - REST, JSON Parser, IntegrationHub Runtime, Complex Object, and IHUB Spoke Util Pack must be installed. Some of these may require additional licensing. ## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers By integrating Azure Blob Storage with ServiceNow, customers can automate and manage their Azure storage operations within the ServiceNow environment, reducing manual effort and enabling seamless workflow automation. The spoke's pre-built actions and subflows allow quick adoption, while the use of aliases eases credential management across multiple environments. This integration supports enhanced data handling capabilities and contributes to more streamlined IT and business processes.

For more information, see [Legal schedules - IntegrationHub overview](https://www.servicenow.com/content/dam/servicenow-assets/public/en-us/doc-type/legal/snc-addendum-integrationhub.pdf). ## Spoke version {#azure-blob-spoke__section_e4q_g5j_lqb} Azure Blob Storage spoke v2.0.0 is the latest version. For version history of the spoke, see [Microsoft Azure Blob Storage spoke release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/store-integrationhub-rn-azure-blob-storage.html).{#azure-blob-spoke__blob-ver} ## Spoke dependencies {#azure-blob-spoke__section_gqb_mxx_xmb} If you're having trouble installing the app, confirm that these dependent plugins are installed: * ServiceNow IntegrationHub Action Step - REST (com.glide.hub.action_step.rest) * ServiceNow IntegrationHub Action Step - JSON Parser (com.glide.hub.action_step.jsonparser) * ServiceNow IntegrationHub Runtime (com.glide.hub.integration.runtime) * Complex Object (com.glide.cobject) * IHUB Spoke Util Pack (com.snc.ihub_spoke_util_pack) {#azure-blob-spoke__ul_hqb_mxx_xmb} Note: Some of these plugins are licensable features and require appropriate licenses, if used outside the spoke implementation. ## Supported versions {#azure-blob-spoke__section_zjt_sh4_zgb} This spoke was built for API version 2023-11-03, but may be compatible with later versions. ## Spoke requirements {#azure-blob-spoke__section_ldk_yzb_glb} * Storage account in your Microsoft Azure portal for integration with your ServiceNow instance. Note: Verify that you have the Storage Blob Data Owner role. To assign the role: 1. Log in to your storage account and navigate to Access Control(IAM). 2. Select the Add a role assignment and select the Storage Blob Data Owner role. 3. Assign access to the required Azure AD user, group, or service principle option. Select the email address of the Azure account and save the changes. {#azure-blob-spoke__ol_edn_rq2_rmb}For more information, see [Use the Azure portal to assign an Azure role for access to blob and queue data](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-auth-aad-rbac-portal). * Record and save the access keys and Directory ID for later use. {#azure-blob-spoke__ul_syf_xwy_ylb} ## Spoke subflows {#azure-blob-spoke__section_zsc_xp2_rmb} The Azure Blob Storage spoke provides sample subflows to demonstrate automating the Azure Blob Storage tasks. To customize a sample flow, copy it to a new application scope. Available sample flows include:{#azure-blob-spoke__table_uj2_yp2_rmb__entry__2} | Subflow | Description | |-|-| | Move Blob | Moves a blob from source container to destination container. | | Rename Blob | Renames the specified blob. | | Look up Blobs Stream | Retrieves the details of all blobs in a container. | | Look up Containers Stream | Retrieves a list of containers under the specified storage account. | [ ] {#azure-blob-spoke__table_uj2_yp2_rmb} ## Spoke actions {#azure-blob-spoke__section_b43_3h2_hfb} The Azure Blob Storage spoke provides actions to automate Azure Blob Storage tasks when events occur in the ServiceNow AI Platform. Available actions include: {#azure-blob-spoke__table_sv5_d4y_ylb__entry__3} | Category | Action | Description | |-|-|-| | Blob Management | Attach Blob to ServiceNow Record | Attaches a blob to the ServiceNow record. | | Blob Management | Copy Blob | Copies a blob from one container to another container. | | Blob Management | Delete Blob | Deletes the specified blob. | | Blob Management | Lease Blob | Creates a lock on a blob for write and delete operations. | | Blob Management | Look up Blob | Retrieves details of the specified blob. | | Blob Management | Look up Blobs | Retrieves details of all blobs in a container. | | Blob Management | Release Lease on Blob | Releases a lock on a blob. | | Blob Management | Snapshot Blob | Creates a snapshot for the specified blob. | | Blob Management | Upload Attachment to Container | Uploads a blob in specified container. | | Container Management | Create Container | Creates a container under the specified account. | | Container Management | Delete Container | Deletes a container. | | Container Management | Lease Container | Creates a lock on the container for delete operations. | | Container Management | Look up Container | Retrieves details of the specified container. | | Container Management | Look up Containers | Retrieves list of the containers under the specified storage account. | | Container Management | Release Lease on Container | Releases a lock on a container. | [ ] {#azure-blob-spoke__table_sv5_d4y_ylb} ## Connection and credential alias requirements {#azure-blob-spoke__section_ibn_pj2_hfb} Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection. For information about setting up the spoke, see [Set up the Microsoft Azure Blob Storage Spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/6GZOeMa8Ur6_dAA2yHMOcA#setup-blob-spoke "Configure the Microsoft Azure Blob Storage connection alias record on your ServiceNow instance. This enables the authentication of connection requests from the ServiceNow instance by the Microsoft Azure portal.").
