  • Take advantage of flow designer to automate your Day 2 operations. Quickly write a subflow that communicates with a Cloud API or a particular resource. Use SSH, PowerShell, or a similar tool, to access and then extend the workflow capabilities.

    Day 1 operations provision resources in a cloud as part of ordering from the ServiceNow catalog or the cloud catalog. These operations result in a stack that contains a list of provisioned resources. Day 2 operations can be carried out on the resources that are part of the stack or the resources discovered by the system.

    Previously, to execute Day 2 operations in Cloud Provisioning and Governance, you had to interact directly with the Cloud API (CAPI), which frequently meant that you had to write new APIs to support a new operation.
