    Spoke dependencies

    The Lenovo spoke doesn't have a dependency on any other plugin.

    Spoke actions

    The Lenovo spoke provides action to automate downloading asset warranty information when events occur in your ServiceNow instance. Available action is as follows:

    Action Description
    Download Asset Warranty Connect to the Lenovo Warranty API to download asset warranty information.
    Note:
    For more information on getting asset warranty details from Lenovo, see Integration with Lenovo for asset warranty details.

    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.

    To use the actions in the Lenovo spoke, you must create a connection and credential record to authenticate and connect to Lenovo. For more information, see Create a connection and credential for Lenovo spoke
