Third-party extensions
Use the ServiceNow extensions to model your pipeline in DevOps and configure branch analysis for tools like SonarQube.
Additional extensions may be required for applications such as Jenkins or Azure DevOps. These extensions are used when ServiceNow DevOps can’t integrate using only the native REST API and push notifications.
- Jenkins plugin for ServiceNow DevOps
A Jenkins plugin is provided to enable change acceleration so your orchestration tool can communicate and control certain aspects of pipeline executions from within ServiceNow DevOps.
Install the plugin from the Jenkins Marketplace. Navigate to Manage Jenkins > System configuration > Plugins in your Jenkins instance. Search for ServiceNow DevOps Plugin and select it, and then select Install.
- ServiceNow DevOps for Azure DevOps
Use the ServiceNow DevOps extension on Visual Studio Marketplace if you plan to integrate your Azure DevOps pipeline with ServiceNow DevOps.
For more information, see Use the ServiceNow DevOps extension for Azure DevOps and Azure DevOps custom actions.
- ServiceNow DevOps custom actions for GitHub Actions
Use the ServiceNow DevOps custom actions on GitHub marketplace if you plan to integrate your GitHub workflows with ServiceNow DevOps.
For more information, see GitHub Actions configurations.
