ServiceNowRestClient Introduction

The ServiceNowRestClient module provides an API for calling ServiceNow REST services.

To use this module, use "%requires ServiceNowRestClient" in your code.

All the public symbols in the module are defined in the ServiceNowRestClient namespace.

The main classes are:

• ServiceNowRestClient: this class provides the REST client API for communuication with the ServiceNow REST API; it also automates authentication and authorization to the target
• ServiceNowRestConnection: provides a REST connection object to a ServiceNow server (based on the ConnectionProvider module)

Example:

#!/usr/bin/env qore
 
%new-style
%strict-args
%require-types
%enable-all-warnings
 
%requires ServiceNowRestClient
 
hash<auto> opts = {
    "url": "https://dev493922.service-now.com/",
    "username": "admin",
    "password": "mypassword",
};
 
ServiceNowRestClient rest(opts);
hash<auto> ans = rest.get("...");
printf("%N\n", ans.body);
