Label


Required. The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline.

Table name



Required. The name of the table in the instance. The table name is suggestible but requires an account setting for the suggestions to appear.


Only accounts that have the 'Personalize dictionary' role can see the field labels associated with each table in the ServiceNow data dictionary. Therefore, accounts used with Snaps in this Snap Pack must have the ‘Personalize dictionary’ permission if you want to view the Table name suggestions..

Specifies the maximum number of retry attempts when the Snap fails to write.

Example: 3

Minimum value: 0

Default value: 0

Retry interval (seconds)

Specifies the minimum number of seconds the Snap must wait before each retry attempt.

Example: 3

Minimum value: 1

Default value: 1

Snap execution

Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:

  • Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
  • Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
  • Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.


 Example


The example assumes that you have configured & authorized a valid ServiceNow account (see Configuring ServiceNow Accounts) to be used with this Snap. 

The following pipeline shows how you can pass the record ID of ServiceNow record to be deleted from a specified table using a ServiceNow Delete Snap.

 

In the pipeline execution:

Mapper Snap maps ServiceNow record's ID (sys_id) to the input fields of ServiceNow Delete Snap:

ServiceNow Delete Snap deletes the specified record in the catalog_category_request table: 

After a successful validation of the Snap, you will see a data preview that shows details of the deleted record:
