    About this task

    Application Insights uses the ServiceNow® Workflow Studio to create the trigger and action. You can configure one flow per threshold. You can use any of the actions available in the Workflow Studio and the spokes from Integration Hub. This example configures a trigger to send an email.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Application Insights > Application Insights.
    2. Select Thresholds.
    3. Select an existing threshold from the Thresholds list.
    4. From the ellipses, select Create flow.
      The Workflow Studio opens. The system automatically populates a base template with a trigger and three actions.

      Modify the base template to fit your needs.

      For more information about using the Workflow Studio, see Flow Designer.
