Prerequisites

First, you will need to install the Perspectium DataSync Free application.

For domain-separated instances, you must be in the global domain to install the application.

Procedure

To set the initial configurations for your DataSync Free app, follow these steps:

Switch to the Perspectium DataSync Free Application Scope

The DataSync Free app requires your ServiceNow instance to be in its scope during registration. Navigate to on the top-left corner of your instance.

Helium > DataSync Free registration > Navigate_to_gear_icon.png

Then, on the Developer tab, select Perspectium DataSync Free as the Application.

NOTE: This action is only required for users with the admin role

Navigate to the Perspectium DataSync Free application

In the Filter Navigator of the Application Navigator, type in “perspectium” to find the Perspectium DataSync Free application:

Read and accept the User Agreement terms

Navigate to Perspectium DataSync Free > Setup to access the User Agreement page. Then, read through and accept the agreement terms by clicking I Accept at the bottom of the form.

Register your Perspectium account

On the DataSync Free Registration & Setup page, type your first and last name, company name, and email in the appropriate fields. Then, create a password. Your password must be 8+ characters, including at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, and one special character with no whitespace.

NOTE: This password will be used to connect to both the Perspectium Integration Mesh and the Perspectium Cloud database.

Create an encryption key

Type an encryption key of 24+ characters for Base64 encoding, AES-128 encryption, or TripleDES data encryption in the ServiceNow section.

Finish setup

Accept the terms for submitting the form and click Finish Setup at the bottom of the form.

Receive information to connect to your database

The setup will take a few minutes and you will be emailed with your database URL after successful registration. While the setup is taking place, you can start using the DataSync Free app to start sharing data from your ServiceNow instance.

View your data on a database viewer

Access and view the Perspectium Cloud database by clicking on the url provided in the email or use a database viewer or reporting tool (such as Tableau) of your choice. You can then connect to this database to view data and run your own reports using your reporting tools.

NOTE: You must use the password you created during DataSync Free registration to connect to both the Perspectium Integration Mesh and the Perspectium Cloud database.
