With DataSync for ServiceNow, the Share Schema feature is expanded to create new tables in a subscribing ServiceNow instance. Sharing the schema to another ServiceNow instance will do more than just create the table, field types, choices, labels, values and other additional information about the table will be shared and replicated, as well as the following:
- Table sys IDs, columns and the selection for choice fields
- ACLs
- Other table information (Extends, Auto-number, application access, etc.)
Upon receiving a schema message, the table will be created in the ServiceNow instance and a generic subscribe record will be created to allow for replication of any records that come with the table schema.
Prerequisites
First, you will need to install DataSync for ServiceNow and run the Perspectium Finish Install scripts.
You will also need to create a shared queue.
Procedure
To start using share schema to replicate tables in a subscribing instance, follow these steps:
Navigate to Bulk Share
Navigate to Perspectium > Replicator > Bulk Share and create a new bulk share for the table you want to share.
Enable Advanced option
Check Advanced. Once that option is checked, an Advanced tab will appear with the rest of the selection tabs.
Enable Share Schema
Check Share Schema. Once that option is checked, the Target Application field will appear. In that field, select ServiceNow.
Save the form
Click the Save button at the bottom of the form to save the configurations for your bulk share.
