Used to send messages to Perspectium Integration Mesh to monitor status of the Perspectium for ServiceNow application.
NOTE: If the Perspectium application cannot connect to the Default Mesh, this values will toggle to true
...
Specify node to run Perspectium Scheduled Jobs (Warning: Changing from default may affect performance)
NOTE:
- The value "Default" allows your ServiceNow instance choose which node to run scheduled jobs on
- This feature is only available on ServiceNow production instances as developer instances only have one node

Deletes messages as soon as they are posted to the Integration Mesh, rather than updating them to sent and letting a different process delete the message.
NOTE: This can be used under systems with high volume to limit the different processes going to the Outbound Message tables.

DataSync for ServiceNow runs several scheduled jobs in the background of your instance.
However, if Perspectium scheduled jobs start to affect your instance's performance, you may want to stop your Perspectium scheduled jobs and then start them again. Here's how:
...
...
The application installs a role called perspectium that has access to the Perspectium application's tables. This role can be used to limit ServiceNow users to only have access to the Perspectium application and can be given to a user used with theDataSync Agent to access ServiceNow table schemas in order to replicate accurately and dynamically to external databases.

| title | ServiceNow table maps |

ServiceNow tables maps are used to map and/or transform outbound ServiceNow field data for the record being dynamic shared or bulk shared. If the field names of the record being shared out from ServiceNow need to be modified, or if the value of one or more fields needs to be transformed, you can create an outbound table map to modify the fields for your integration.
...
...
...
NOTE: When using a table map with a dynamic share, the dynamic share will trigger based on trigger conditions (i.e. create, update or filter conditions). So this may result in a dynamic share being triggered when a particular field is updated that is not in the table map. As a result, the table mapped record shared out may not have any updated content since all the fields mapped have not changed. To avoid this scenario, use the Share or ignore on specified field updates option.
NOTE: If a table map is set, records with an attachment or message size greater than 5 MB will not be shared out due to ServiceNow platform limitations with how large one particular record can be.
Instructions
Prerequisites:
- First, you will need to commit a Perspectium update set containing table maps to your ServiceNow instance.
- You will also need to create a ServiceNow dynamic share or bulk share.

Outbound table maps are used to map and/or transform the outbound ServiceNow field data for the replicated records. You should use Outbound table maps if the field names of the replicated record from ServiceNow need to be modified, or if the value of one or more fields needs to be transformed. Once the Outbound table map is configured, it can be assigned to a dynamic share or bulk share by selecting it in the Table Map field on corresponding forms. See Add a table map to your ServiceNow dynamic share/bulk share.
Outbound table maps are utilized and packaged per integration. See ServiceBond for all the different Perspectium supported applications that uses Outbound table maps.
Inbound Table Maps
Inbound table maps direct messages to an Import Set Table where a ServiceNow Transform Map will do the processing. These configurations are used to map inbound replication messages to a ServiceNow table based on the Topic and Type specified in the message. For example, a record coming in with the “topic=siam” and the “type=common_incident” will be mapped to the “u_psp_common_incident” Import Set Table. The corresponding Transform Map will then process the message appropriately.

ServiceNow table maps are typically used in Perspectium Service Gateway integrations to handle the mapping of fields in certain ServiceNow tables as data is shared out of your instance. You can include a table map as part of your ServiceNow dynamic share or bulk share to help with field mappings and data transformation.
