My library Knowledge Sources To Go is very popular, but it was intended mainly as a thematically grouped guide to standard sources and was provided by me as a PDF file. For certain topics, however, there is so much content that I can no longer include it in that document, as it cannot continue to grow forever.

For this reason, I have decided to handle such topics in individual community articles like this one instead.

What is the Integration Hub?

Integration Hub is a framework used to interact with third-party platforms in ServiceNow. Developers can use Integration Hub to build integration actions to execute commands against external platforms.

Examples of how to use Integration Hub:

  • Post news to Slack, HipChat, Microsoft Teams, or other communication and social media platforms.
  • Automate onboarding processes to update user information in a Human Resources system, create a user in Active Directory, and assign training to a new employee.
  • Consume information from and interact with Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

Integration Hub includes steps to call REST APIs, run PowerShell commands, and write scripts to interact with other APIs. Steps are the building blocks of actions used to integrate Flow Designer with external platforms. Actions are reusable building blocks to use in Flow Designer

Trainings & Courses

Integration Hub Fundamentals

This learning path brings three courses together, so you can easily enroll in, and learn Integration Hub core skills:

• Introduction

• Use Store Spokes

• Create New Spokes

• Create Data Stream Actions

Integration Hub: Implement the Zoom Spoke

This course focuses on how to implement one of these spokes: the Zoom Spoke. You will learn the specific steps used to configure the Zoom Spoke and how to use a Zoom Spoke action in a Flow.

Integration Hub: Execute Linux Scripts

Integration Hub offers several pre-built sets of integration actions to interact with common third-party applications and systems. One of these integrations is the SSH Step, which executes SSH commands on an external *nix system through a ServiceNow MID Server. This course will explore the SSH Step functionality of Integratioh Hub.

What is IntegrationHub and how do I use it?

IntegrationHub gives developers, admins and business process owners a centralized place to build and manage integrations. “Content” in IntegrationHub is made up of a series of “Spokes”. Spokes are self-contained scoped applications that contain all of the artifacts that make up an integration, primarily “Actions”.
