    Summary of AWS Lambda Spoke

    The AWS Lambda spoke allows ServiceNow users to manage AWS Lambda functions and aliases directly from their ServiceNow instance. It requires an Integration Hub subscription and is compatible with AWS API version 2010-05-08, and possibly later versions, but users must ensure the correct API version is used in all actions.

    Key Features

    • Alias Management: Create, delete, retrieve, list, and update aliases for AWS Lambda functions.
    • Function Management: Actions to add permissions, create, delete, retrieve details, invoke, list, update code, and update configuration of AWS Lambda functions.
    • Connection Management: Utilizes aliases for managing connection credentials, simplifying the process when working across multiple environments.

    Key Outcomes

    By using the AWS Lambda spoke, customers can automate AWS Lambda tasks when events occur in ServiceNow, streamline their integration processes, and manage connections efficiently. Users must have full access to Lambda and appropriate IAM policies in place to utilize this spoke effectively.

    Manage alias and function in AWS Lambda from your ServiceNow instance.

    Supported version

    This spoke was built for API version 2010-05-08, but may be compatible with later versions.
    Note:
    If you use different API version, ensure that you change the API version in all spoke actions.

    Spoke requirements

    • User with full access to Lambda.
      Note:
      The AWSLambdaFullAccess IAM policy must be assigned to the user. See Identity-based IAM policies for AWS Lambda for more information about the IAM policy.
    • Access Key ID and Secret Access Key of the user as obtained in the IAM Console. Record these values for later use.
    For more information about creating user in IAM and providing the required access, see Understanding and Getting Your Security Credentials page on the AWS Documentation site.

    Spoke actions

    The AWS Lambda spoke provides actions to automate AWS Lambda tasks when events occur in ServiceNow. Available actions include:

    Category Action Description
    Alias Management Create Function Alias Creates an alias for the specified function.
    Delete Function Alias Deletes the specified alias of the function.
    Get Function Alias Details Retrieves the details of the specified function alias.
    List Function Aliases Retrieves the list of all aliases for the specified function.
    Update Function Alias Updates settings of the specified alias.
    Function Management Add Permission Grants an AWS service or another account permission to use the specified AWS Lambda function.
    Create Function Creates a function in AWS Lambda.
    Delete Function Deletes the specified AWS Lambda function or function version.
    Get Function Details Retrieves details of the specified AWS Lambda function or function version.
    Invoke Function Invokes the specified AWS Lambda function.
    List Functions Retrieves list of all AWS Lambda functions in a region
    Update Function Code Updates code of the specified AWS Lambda function.
    Update Function Configuration Updates configuration of the specified AWS Lambda function.

    Connection and credential alias requirements

    Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection.
