    • Create a connection profile to establish a connection between your SAP system and your ServiceNow instance using OAuth 2.0 authentication.

    始める前に

    Before establishing a connection between SAP and your ServiceNow instance, make sure that the following conditions are met:
    • Verify if your SAP system network is accessible to external applications like ServiceNow.
    • If external connections are blocked, install a MID Server. A MID Server enables communication and data movement between a ServiceNow instance and external applications or data sources. For instructions, see Installing the MID Server.

    If you already have a MID Server installed in the network and connected to your ServiceNow instance, this SAP connection automatically uses it.
