## Summary of SCCM Usage Metering Spoke

The SCCM Usage Metering Spoke enables ServiceNow customers to fetch software usage data from a Microsoft System Center Configuration Management (SCCM) Usage Metering server.
This spoke provides insights into software usage metering and tracks when software was last used, helping organizations monitor software utilization effectively.
Show full answer Show less  
This spoke requires an Integration Hub subscription and is compatible with Microsoft SCCM version 1602 and potentially later versions. It is designed to work with Microsoft System Center Configuration Management Usage Metering Server version 2012 R2 with software metering enabled, and requires Microsoft SQL Server 2014.

## Key Features

* **Software Usage Data Retrieval:** Actions to retrieve last usage data and overall usage metering of specified software from the SCCM server.
* **Efficient Connection Management:** Uses connection and credential aliases to simplify managing multiple environments and updating credentials without modifying each action.
* **Flexible Execution:** Actions utilize REST calls and can run on either a ServiceNow instance or a MID Server, with configurable MID Server selection attributes.

## Practical Requirements and Configuration

* Ensure SCCM software metering is enabled with configured metering rules for required software.
* Set up an appropriate connection record linked to the SCCM Usage Metering alias for managing action execution location.
* Prepare MID Server if actions need to run outside the ServiceNow instance, following the spoke-specific MID Server setup guidelines.
* Be aware of a 10 MB maximum payload limit for data retrieved via JDBC steps.

## Expected Outcomes

By implementing the SCCM Usage Metering Spoke, customers can automate the process of collecting detailed software usage metrics from SCCM, enabling improved software asset management and compliance monitoring. This helps in optimizing license usage and supports data-driven decision-making around software deployment and retirement.  
Manage the process of fetching software usage data from a Microsoft System Center Configuration Management (SCCM) Usage Metering server. Get data about software usage metering and when the software was last used using this spoke.

## Integration Hub subscription {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_ovz_2x2_wkb}

This spoke requires an Integration Hub subscription. 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 {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_jk2_zq4_pyb}

SCCM Usage Metering spoke v1.0.2 is the latest version. For version history of the spoke, see [SCCM Usage Metering spoke release notes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/store-release-notes/store-integrationhub-rn-sccm-usage.html).{#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__sccm-spk-version}

## Supported versions {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_ibs_kx2_wkb}

This spoke was built for Microsoft SCCM version 1602, but may be compatible
with later versions.

## Spoke Requirements {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_bb4_h13_xkb}

* Microsoft System Center Configuration Management Usage Metering Server version 2012 R2 with software metering enabled. For more information about software metering, see [Software metering in Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/configmgr/apps/deploy-use/monitor-app-usage-with-software-metering)  
  Note:  
  Ensure that metering rules are configured in SCCM for the required software.
* Microsoft SQL Server 2014

## Spoke flows and subflows {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_vwj_jz2_wkb}

This spoke has no flows and subflows.

## Spoke actions {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_sn3_wz2_wkb}

The SCCM Usage Metering spoke provides actions to retrieve software usage data from a Microsoft System Center Configuration Management Usage Metering server. Available actions
include:
{#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__table_vtf_w1f_wkb__entry__2}

| Action | Description |
|-|-|
| Get Software Last Used Data | Retrieves the last usage data of the required software from the Microsoft SCCM server. |
| Get Software Usage Data | Retrieves usage metering of the required software from the Microsoft SCCM server. |
[Table 1. Spoke actions]

{#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__table_vtf_w1f_wkb}  
Note:  
The spoke actions support a maximum payload of 10 MB from the SCCM server for the JDBC
step.

## Connection and credential alias requirements {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_jbz_cl3_lfb}

Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection
and credential information. 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 more information, see [Connections and Credentials](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r-credentials&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US).

For information about setting up the spoke, see
[Set up the SCCM Usage Metering spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/_CpDzt_K6l7D_PBkxsYDpw#setup-sccm-usage-metering-spoke "Integrate the ServiceNow instance and SCCM using Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) credentials to authenticate ServiceNow requests.").

## MID Server requirements {#sccm-usage-metering-spoke__section_gyl_bwj_vdb}

These actions use REST calls, which can run on an instance or MID Server. Use the connection
record that is associated with the Microsoft SCCM Usage Metering alias to configure where
actions run as well as to set MID Server selection attributes. For more information, see [MID server](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=mid-server-landing&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US).

To set up the MID Server for this spoke, see [Set up MID Server for a spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/OEkPOX7xORDj2GD6UZwzjg "Configure MID Server settings on your ServiceNow instance that enables it to integrate with a third-party application via MID Server after you have set up the connection record for a spoke.").
