To establish the connection between the VMware Aria Automation and the VMware Aria Automation Plug-in, the ServiceNow system administrator or Plug-in administrator must register the Plugin to a VMware Aria Automation instance. To register the VMware Aria Automation Plug-in with VMware Aria Automation on-premises, a MID server is required and its status must be Up and Validated.

Prerequisites

  • You must be the system administrator or Plug-in admin in ServiceNow.

  • MID Server must be configured and its status must be Up and Validated.

Procedure

  1. Log in to ServiceNow as a system administrator or Plugin admin user.
  2. From the left pane, go to Manage Endpoints > New.
  3. From the Endpoint Type drop-down menu, select VMware Aria Automation.
    Note:

    While registering the endpoint, the telemetry pop-up will be displayed for consent. For more information, see Telemetry.
