Before you can run the Shodan Exploit Integration in your instance, download and install it from the ServiceNow Store. This application is available as a separate subscription.

## Before you begin

Complete the following setup checklist prior to installation. These setup tasks are required for a smooth installation and configuration.  
Note:  
This process applies only to applications that are downloaded to production instances. If you're downloading applications to non-production or development instances, it's not necessary to get entitlements. Proceed to [Activate a ServiceNow Store application](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/cbsCnF1HDp9yU6mvFeqGtg "After an application has been given entitlement, you must activate its dependencies plugin and activate the application. This process also applies to applications downloaded to sub-production instances.").

| Setup tasks | Description |
|-|-|
| Verify that you have valid ServiceNow entitlements for the Vulnerability Response application and the Shodan Exploit Integration for Security Operations application. | To verify entitlements, navigate to Subscription ManagementSubscriptions in your instance. The list displays the subscriptions your organization has purchased. For more information about getting entitlements for a Security Operations application from the ServiceNow Store, see [Get entitlement for a Security Operations product or application](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/~2u0~c5D1BrLZsmjUfocXQ "The first step in installing a Security Operations application is to verify that the application or the product and its associated applications have valid ServiceNow entitlements."). |
| (Optional) If not already installed and activated, you may prefer to install the Vulnerability Response application prior to installing the third-party application. | For more information about installing and activating the Vulnerability Response application, see, [Install Vulnerability Response](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/R7O9Hti_CMI20SqzRW392g "Before you run the Vulnerability Response application in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance, you must get entitlement and download the application from the ServiceNow Store, install it on your ServiceNow AI Platform instance, and activate it."). |
| Have the Shodan Exploit Integration API key handy. | See [Preparing for the Shodan Exploit Integration](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/TU7o~IW9rQ~RWReUf1gqqw "A successful Shodan Exploit Integration requires planning and careful execution of pre-integration tasks. Prepare for the integration by performing these tasks. The Shodan Exploit Integration assumes that you are familiar with the Shodan search engine and API."). |
