* Release version: Australia
*
* Updated March 12, 2026
*
*  4 minutes to read
Set up scheduled import jobs to pull in Azure API Management data into your CMDB.
## Before you begin
Install API Service Graph Connector for Azure API Management version 1.0.0 or later from the ServiceNow Store. For ServiceNow Store installation steps, see [Install a ServiceNow Store application](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=installing-applications-in-application-manager&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).
Obtain the OAuth credentials from your Azure administrator. Make a note of the following details:
* Application (client) ID
* Client Secret
* Directory (tenant) ID
* Connection URL

Role required: The following table shows the roles required for each stage of the playbook.{#sgcc-configure-azure-api-mgmt__table_zcy_w5p_4hc__entry__2}
| Stage | Role |
|-|-|
| Prerequisites | admin |

[Table 1. Role required for each playbook stage]
{#sgcc-configure-azure-api-mgmt__table_zcy_w5p_4hc}
Note:
The admin user role is required to run background scripts and to provide access to global tables to the SGC-Admin user. For information about the user roles for Service Graph Connectors, see [Service Graph Connector user roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/llR5whccV6~8Oi~Q_e8~xQ#cmdb-sgc-intro__section_ett_spp_4hc).
## About this task
The playbook experience for onboarding connectors is activated with SGC Central in the CMDB Workspace. To configure the SGC Central application, see [Configuring SGC Central](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/7dDf5rxNMnkcccCA02GxmQ "Set up the SGC Central application for onboarding and maintaining Service Graph Connectors and monitoring the errors related to connections added using Service Graph Connectors.") and for more information on how to interact with a playbook, see [Interact with Playbook](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=playbook-ui&version=australia&pubname=australia-build-workflows&ft:locale=en-US).
Note:
Alternatively, you can configure a default connection already available from the installed or draft connections in SGC Central. Go to AllService Graph Connectors, then select Setup for the connector from the menu. To learn about installed and draft connections, see [Managing connections added for Service Graph Connectors in SGC Central](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/KVfgB9KZk6vuho37K__N_Q "You can create and update connections added for Service Graph Connectors within the SGC Central view of the Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace to ingest data into Configuration Management Database (CMDB) from third-party sources.").
## Procedure
1. Navigate to WorkspacesCMDB Workspace.
2. In the CMDB Workspace, select SGC Central.
3. On the Overview page, select Create connection.
Tip:
Alternatively, you can select Create connection on the All connections page.
4. On the Create connection window, select the Azure API Management connector type, and then select Create connection.
5. Complete the initial prerequisites when setting up a connection for the first time using a connector.
Note:
This step is required only during the first-time setup. See [Perform initial setup tasks when creating a connection in SGC Central](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/0vWb7VG8kY9kzX25jOf72Q "Complete the prerequisites for setting up a connection for the first time using a Service Graph Connector within the SGC Central view of the Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace.").
6. Enter connection details and test the API connection for importing Azure API Management data.
1. In the Setup stage of the playbook, select the Create and test connection activity.
2. On the form, fill in the fields.
