Service Graph Connector for Observability - New Relic
Summarize
Summary of Service Graph Connector for Observability - New Relic
The Service Graph Connector for Observability - New Relic allows you to ingest Configuration Management Database (CMDB) data from New Relic using REST APIs. This integration enables the transfer of events from New Relic into ServiceNow, enhancing Event Management capabilities.

Key Features
- Supported Versions: New Relic has been tested up to version July 01, 2025. Compatible ServiceNow versions include Xanadu, Yokohama, and Zurich.
- Configuration: Utilize the SGC Central view in the Service Graph Workspace to install and configure the connector, as the guided setup method is being phased out.
- CMDB Integrations Dashboard: Monitor the status and results of all integrations through the Integration Commons for CMDB store app, allowing for filtering by specific integrations or time frames.
- Data Mapping: New Relic data is transformed into ServiceNow CMDB CI class definitions via the Robust Transform Engine (RTE) and processed using the Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE).
Key Outcomes
After successful configuration, the connector can periodically pull data from New Relic into designated staging and target tables within ServiceNow, ensuring your CMDB is up-to-date with relevant information. You can also manage unmatched event ingestion through the system property snnewrelicinteg.alertsforunmatchedci.enabled, which can be set to true to enable this feature.
Use the Service Graph Connector for Observability - New Relic to ingest CMDB data from a New Relic installation using REST APIs. Push events from New Relic into ServiceNow with Event Management.

CMDB integrations dashboard
The Integration Commons for CMDB store app provides a dashboard with a central view of the status, processing results, and processing errors of all installed integrations. You can see metrics for all integration runs. You can filter the view to a specific CMDB integration, a specific time duration, or a specific integration run. For more details about monitoring Observability New Relic integrations in the CMDB Integrations Dashboard, see Using the CMDB Integrations Dashboard.
Data mapping
Data from the New Relic data sources is mapped and transformed into the ServiceNow CMDB Configuration Item (CI) class definitions using the Robust Transform Engine (RTE). Data is inserted into the ServiceNow CMDB using the Identification and Reconciliation Engine (IRE).
The following data sources are included for New Relic:
- SG-New Relic Application Services
- SG-New Relic Applications
- SG-New Relic Disks
- SG-New Relic Hosts
- SG_New Relic Networks
- SG-New Relic Applications [sn_newrelic_integ_sg_new_relic_applications]
- SG-New Relic Application Services [sn_newrelic_integ_application_services]
- SG-New Relic Disks [sn_newrelic_integ_disks]
- SG-New Relic Hosts [sn_newrelic_integ_hosts]
- SG_New Relic Networks [sn_newrelic_integ_networks]
The data is then inserted into the following target tables:
- Application [cmdb_ci_appl]
- Application service [cmdb_ci_service_calculated]
- Disk [cmdb_ci_disk]
- IP Address[cmdb_ci_ip_address]
- Network Adapter [cmdb_ci_network_adapter]
- Running Process [cmdb_running_process]
- Server [cmdb_ci_server]
- Software Installation [cmdb_sam_sw_install] (If the Software Asset Management (SAM) application is installed.)
- Software Instance [cmdb_software_instance] (If the SAM application is not installed.)
- Software [cmdb_ci_spkg] (If the SAM application is not installed.)

You can use the IntegrationHub ETL app to view the data maps. See IntegrationHub ETL for more information.
System property
The sn_newrelic_integ.alerts_for_unmatched_ci.enabled system property determines whether to ingest events that don't have a matching CMDB CI class. Set the value of this system property to true to ingest unmatched events. The default value is false.
