    • Integrate ThousandEyes with Event Management by adding a webhook in the ThousandEyes platform.

    Avant de commencer

    Ensure that the Event Management Connectors (sn_em_connector) plugin is installed on the ServiceNow AI Platform instance.

    Discovery for ThousandEyes services is not supported, so you must create a CI manually in the ServiceNow instance for event binding to work.
