Salesforce Integration with ServiceNow through Mule ESB

In an Application Lifecycle Management ecosystem, the choice of systems and the collaboration between the cross-functional teams play a great role in delivering quality solutions. While the choice of systems impacts the productivity of a team, the cross-functional collaboration enhances seamless communication between teams to take better decisions, faster.

Overview of Salesforce Integration with ServiceNow

Integrating ServiceNow solutions offer enterprises and their users the knack to be prepared, make smarter decisions, serve more customers, and increase revenue and customer satisfaction by optimizing end- to-end service operations.

The goal of integrating ServiceNow incident management is to restore normal service operation as quickly as possible following an incident, while minimizing impact to business operations and ensuring quality is maintained.

MuleSoft ESB integrates Salesforce and ServiceNow bi-directionally. It ensures that all data is available to each user, in that user’s preferred system, with full context, in real-time. All tickets (incidents) from ServiceNow automatically synchronize to Salesforce (case) and all the entities and details associated with the ‘tickets’ synchronize back to Salesforce. Likewise, whenever a new case is opened in Salesforce, we can automatically open a new incident in ServiceNow, if ServiceNow is being used as incident management system in your organization.

Benefits of Salesforce-ServiceNow Integration

  • Make better and faster decisions

  • Accelerate customer response time

  • Ensure complete traceability of a change request/ticket

  • Get full context of customer issues and priorities

  • Leverage the best of functionality and collaboration in the delivery system.

In order to successfully create incidents in ServiceNow from external platforms such as MuleSoft, Accessibility should be enabled in General System Settings, as shown below:

The goal of integrating ServiceNow incident management is to restore normal service operation as quickly as possible following an incident (which in this case is triggered by new Case creation in Salesforce through any of the channels phone, email, web etc), while minimizing impact to business operations and ensuring quality is maintained.
