Amazon API Gateway Domain Name pattern-based discovery
Summarize
Summary of Amazon API Gateway Domain Name pattern-based discovery
This pattern-based discovery enables ServiceNow customers to identify and map Amazon API Gateway Domain Names within their AWS cloud environments. It is part of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application, which requires updating to the latest version from the ServiceNow Store to discover AWS resources effectively.

Key Features
- Prerequisites and Setup: Customers must meet AWS discovery prerequisites, remove resources from the Resource Inclusion List table to avoid duplicates, and enable the specific pattern, which is disabled by default.
- GovCloud Support: Discovering AWS GovCloud accounts requires configuring AWS service accounts with datacenter URLs.
- Data Population: Discovery populates data into both CMDB and non-CMDB tables:
- Non-CMDB Tables: The
Amazon AWS - API Gateway Domain Name - Extended Inventory (LP)pattern stores detailed AWS-specific domain data accessible via the AWS configuration section. - CMDB Tables: The same pattern populates the
cmdbcicmpresourcetable with domain name resources, including their operational and install status.
- Non-CMDB Tables: The
- CI Relationships: The pattern creates relationships linking API Gateway Domain Names to AWS Datacenters and related cloud resources, supporting comprehensive infrastructure mapping.
- Tag Discovery: AWS tags associated with API Gateway Domain Names are collected and stored in the
cmdbkeyvaluetable, enabling tag-based filtering and management.
Key Outcomes
- Accurate discovery and mapping of API Gateway Domain Names to enhance visibility of AWS API Gateway infrastructure in the ServiceNow CMDB.
- Improved resource management through detailed attributes such as domain status, endpoint type, and SSL/TLS certificate information.
- Elimination of duplicate discoveries by managing resources in the Resource Inclusion List.
- Support for AWS GovCloud environments ensuring compliance and comprehensive coverage.
- Enhanced configuration item relationships and tagging support enable richer service mapping and governance capabilities.
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds AWS services on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.
Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements
- Verify the AWS discovery prerequisites
- For more information, see the prerequisites section in AWS discovery using patterns.
- Remove resources from the Resource Inclusion List table
- Verify that the relevant resource isn't listed in the Resource Inclusion List [sa_cloud_inventory_resource_whitelist] table to avoid duplicate discovery. For more information on removing resources from the Resource Inclusion List, see AWS Resource Inventory discovery with Patterns.
- Enable the relevant pattern
- The pattern for this service is disabled by default. Starting with Visibility Content version 6.28.0, activating or deactivating a pattern won't be considered a customization, and it will continue to receive updates. Patterns that were previously activated or deactivated will reset to the latest predefined version after upgrading while retaining the last active field value. For more information on enabling patterns, see Activate a disabled pattern.
- Configure the Discovery schedule to support GovCloud
- Discovering AWS GovCloud (US) accounts requires using a datacenter URL when setting up an AWS service account. For more information, see Create AWS service accounts.
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in both CMDB and non-CMDB tables.
Data stored in non-CMDB tables
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in the non-CMDB table when running the Amazon AWS - API Gateway Domain Name - Extended Inventory (LP) pattern.
You can review the non-CMDB AWS tables by navigating to . You can also search the navigation filter for the specific pattern name.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Object Id [object_id] | The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) uniquely identifying the domain. |
| Name [name] | The custom domain name associated with an API Gateway. |
| Certificate Name [certificate_name] | The name of the secure sockets layer and transport layer security (SSL/TLS) certificate used for the domain. |
| Configuration Item [configuration_item] | References the Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] table. |
| Domain Name Status [domain_name_status] | The status of the custom domain name. |
| Endpoint Type [endpoint_type] | The type of API endpoint. For example: EDGE or REGIONAL. |
Data stored in CMDB tables
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in the CMDB when running the Amazon AWS - API Gateway Domain Name - Extended Inventory (LP) pattern.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Object ID [object_id] | The ARN uniquely identifying the domain. |
| Name [name] | The custom domain name associated with an API Gateway. |
| Resource type [resource_type] | Type of resource. The value is set to AWS::API Gateway::Domain Name. |
| Install Status [install_status] | Install status of the resource. Default value is Installed. |
| Operational status [operational_status] | Operational status of the resource. Default value is Operational. |
CI relationships
The Amazon AWS - API Gateway Domain Name - Extended Inventory (LP) pattern creates these relationships to support Amazon API Gateway Domain Name discovery.
| CI | Relationship | CI |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] | Hosted on::Hosts | AWS Datacenter [cmdb_ci_aws_datacenter] |
| AWS API Gateway - Domain Name [cmdb_aws_api_gateway_domain_name] | References | Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] |
AWS tag discovery
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Key [key] | Tag name. |
| Value [value] | Tag value. |
