1

A company is integrating ServiceNow with an external system using REST API. The integration is failing with a 401 Unauthorized error. The integration user's credentials are correct and the user has the 'rest_service' role. What is the most likely cause of the failure?

2

An administrator wants to enable inbound email integration to automatically create incidents from emails sent to support@company.com. What is the first step in configuring this?

3

A ServiceNow instance is being integrated with an external HR system using a SOAP message. The SOAP call is failing intermittently. The developer notices that the XML payload contains special characters like '&' and '<'. What is the best practice to handle these characters in SOAP messages?

4

A company wants to allow their customers to submit requests via email. The email should create a new record in the 'Request' table. Which component should be used to define the mapping of email fields to the ServiceNow table fields?

5

A developer is building a REST API endpoint in ServiceNow to return data from the 'incident' table. The API should only return incidents assigned to the caller. Which method should be used to filter the records based on the caller's user ID?

6

Which TWO of the following are valid methods to authenticate a REST API call to ServiceNow?

7

Which THREE of the following are valid components of the ServiceNow IntegrationHub?

8

10

A global company is using ServiceNow for IT Service Management. They have an external asset management system that needs to update asset records in ServiceNow in real-time. The integration is implemented using REST API calls from the external system to ServiceNow. Recently, the integration started failing intermittently with HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) errors. The external system is sending a high volume of update requests (up to 1000 per minute) to the /api/now/table/alm_asset endpoint. The administrator noticed that the instance performance is degraded during peak times. The company wants to resolve the 429 errors while ensuring data is updated as quickly as possible, but without overloading the instance. Which course of action should the administrator take?

11

18

A ServiceNow instance needs to synchronize data with an external SQL database nightly. Which integration method is most appropriate?

19

A developer is creating a REST API in ServiceNow to expose incident data. The API must return only incidents with 'state' = 2 (in progress) and limit results to 50. Which implementation is correct?

20

A company is using a MID Server to run a discovery probe. The probe fails with a timeout error. The developer checks the MID Server logs and sees 'Connection refused'. What is the most likely issue?

21

A developer needs to invoke a third-party SOAP web service from a business rule. The WSDL is imported and the SOAP message is created. What is the correct way to send the request?

22

A ServiceNow instance has a custom table 'u_integration_log' that stores integration transactions. A flow in Flow Designer logs errors by creating records in this table. The flow is running with high volume, and the table is growing quickly causing performance issues. What is the best design to mitigate this?

23

A developer is implementing a custom integration using the ServiceNow REST API Explorer. The endpoint requires an API key in the header. Which approach should be used to secure the API key?

24

A company is integrating ServiceNow with an external system using a custom SOAP web service. The external system requires WS-Security with a username token and a timestamp. How should the developer configure this?

25

Which TWO actions are valid for handling errors in a Flow Designer integration action? (Choose two.)

26

Which TWO approaches are valid for importing data from an external database into ServiceNow on a recurring basis? (Choose two.)

27

Which THREE considerations are important when designing a ServiceNow REST API for external consumption? (Choose three.)

28

A ServiceNow developer is integrating with an external system using a REST message. The external system requires a custom header 'X-API-Key' to be included in every request. Where should the developer configure this header to ensure it is automatically included in all REST messages that call this endpoint?

29

An organization uses ServiceNow with an external identity provider (IdP) for single sign-on (SSO). Users report that they cannot log in via SSO, but direct username/password login still works. The ServiceNow administrator checks the SAML2 configuration and sees that the 'Validate AuthnResponse Signature' checkbox is enabled and the 'X.509 Certificate' field is filled. What is the most likely cause of the SSO failure?

30

A ServiceNow instance integrates with an external inventory system via a scheduled REST import job. Recently, the import started failing intermittently with HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) errors. The external system enforces a rate limit of 100 requests per minute. The existing job pulls 1500 records at a time using a single REST message. Which design change would best resolve this issue while ensuring the import completes successfully?

31

A developer needs to create a flow in Flow Designer that sends an email to a manager when a high-priority incident is created. The flow should retrieve the manager's email from the caller's user record. Which data pill should be used to access the caller's manager's email in the 'Send Email' action?

32

A ServiceNow instance is configured to use LDAP for user authentication and role membership. After a recent LDAP schema change, users can authenticate but some users are missing their assigned roles. The LDAP server is returning all attributes correctly. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

33

A ServiceNow developer is building an integration using IntegrationHub to connect to a third-party system via REST. The system requires OAuth 2.0 with client credentials grant flow. Which TWO configurations are mandatory for setting up this integration in IntegrationHub?

34

A ServiceNow instance needs to expose a REST API endpoint for external applications to query incident data. The developer creates a Scripted REST API and needs to ensure that only authorized applications can access it. Which THREE methods can be used to secure the Scripted REST API?

35

An organization has a ServiceNow instance that integrates with an external HR system using a scheduled job that runs every hour. The job uses a REST message to fetch new hire records and creates user accounts in ServiceNow via a transform map. Recently, the number of new hires has increased significantly, and the job now takes over an hour to complete, causing the next job to start before the previous one finishes. The administrator notices that the transform map is using 'Coalesce' set to 'false' because the external system does not provide a unique identifier. The job also creates a large number of intermediate records that are later updated. The administrator wants to optimize the process to prevent overlapping job runs. Which course of action should the administrator take?

36

A company uses ServiceNow to manage IT assets. An integration sends asset data from an external CMDB to ServiceNow via REST API. The external system sends a payload that includes the asset's serial number, location, and status. The developer has created a Scripted REST API to receive this data. However, when testing, the external system receives an HTTP 500 error. The developer inspects the script log and sees the error: 'java.lang.NullPointerException' at line 10 of the script. The script uses the GlideRecord API to query for an existing asset by serial number. The relevant code is: var gr = new GlideRecord('alm_asset'); gr.get('serial_number', request.body.serial); What is the most likely cause of the NullPointerException?

37

A ServiceNow administrator is configuring Single Sign-On (SSO) using SAML 2.0 with a corporate identity provider. Users report that after authenticating, they are redirected back to ServiceNow but see an error: 'Unable to process SAML response. Invalid user.' The administrator checks the SSO log and sees the message: 'No user found with username: [user@company.com]'. The username format in the SAML assertion is userPrincipalName (e.g., user@company.com). ServiceNow user records use the 'User ID' field (e.g., 'user'). What configuration change should the administrator make to resolve this issue?

38

An organization has a ServiceNow instance that integrates with a third-party monitoring tool using a webhook. The monitoring tool sends HTTP POST requests to a Scripted REST API in ServiceNow to create incidents automatically. Recently, the monitoring tool started sending duplicate requests due to a retry mechanism. The developer wants to ensure that duplicate incidents are not created. The Scripted REST API currently creates a new incident record for every request without checking for duplicates. The request payload includes a unique 'alert_id' field. The developer decides to implement idempotency logic. Which approach should the developer use to prevent duplicate incident creation?

39

Which TWO of the following are valid authentication options for a Scripted REST API in ServiceNow?

40

Refer to the exhibit. An IntegrationHub flow using this REST step is failing with a 401 error. What is the most likely cause?

41

A company has developed a custom Scripted REST API endpoint that processes incoming orders and then makes synchronous outbound REST calls to an external shipping system for validation. During testing with low concurrency, the endpoint works correctly. However, in production with high concurrency, the endpoint frequently times out and returns 504 errors to the caller. The performance team has confirmed that the external shipping system is responsive and the network latency is acceptable. Which course of action should the development team take to resolve the timeout issue?
