Check the full list of supported fields for Jira and for ServiceNow

Its hard to talk about supported fields, because with Exalate you can support a lot. And it is impossible to capture on a single page. We have done cases with very weird things - certainly not limited to the ones listed on the documentation.

Get the Most out of Your Jira ServiceNow Integration

Initiate connections either from ServiceNow or from Jira, whichever option you prefer. No need to install anything on ServiceNow itself; you can install Exalate as a bridge app.

Eliminate the necessity for manual syncs by adding more granular controls. Automate your syncs with custom triggers powered by a native query language.

Use the custom Bulk Exalate feature to save time. Streamline workflows by connecting multiple existing entities with similar trigger configurations.

 

Give your developers a chance to experiment with limitless syncing possibilities using the Groovy-based scripting engine. And yes, changes on one side won’t affect your setup at all.

 

Decentralized Integration

Maintain independent control over every sync, even for cross-company integrations. No need to share admin rights, no risk of exposing confidential information.

Better Scalability

Start small with out-of-the-box connections for basic synchronization scenarios. Scale up and grow faster with the help of script-based custom connections.

Top-notch Security

The fact that Exalate is a very extensible and flexible product is quite an impressive feature for us. We can even build our own integration on top of it, and it actually shows that the developers and the engineers behind the product do really know what they are doing. Plus we have had an excellent customer experience.

Simple or Advanced, We Got you Covered

Work with simple integration templates or completely customize your sync between ServiceNow and Jira.

Default Sync

Bi-directionally sync new and existing comments, descriptions, attachments, statuses, priorities, urgencies, work logs, and much more between Jira and ServiceNow. Use triggers to exert granular control over how the sync works.

if(entityType == “changeRequest”) {

replica.summary = changeRequest.short_description replica.description = changeRequest.description replica.comments = changeRequest.comments replica.attachments = changeRequest.attachments

///other fields supported by the Change request entity

Sync ServiceNow Change Request with Jira Issues

Keep customers informed about product changes in real time. Create change tasks for dedicated teams.

if(entityType == “changeRequest”) {

replica.summary = changeRequest.short_description replica.description = changeRequest.description replica.comments = changeRequest.comments replica.attachments = changeRequest.attachments

///other fields supported by the Change request entity

Sync Priority between ServiceNow and Jira

Maintain uniformity across all platforms. Give your ServiceNow entity the same level of priority or urgency as the Jira Issue. 

. . .

def priorityMapping = [ 

“1 – Critical”: “High”
“2 – High”: “High”
“3 – Moderate”: “Medium”
“4 – Low”: “Low”
“5 – Planning”: “Lowest” ]

issue.priority = nodeHelper.getPriority(priorityName)

Store Correlation Details for Remote Entity

Use correlation fields to establish a relationship between local and remote systems. Store unique entity IDs, URLs, or other remote records in Jira and ServiceNow.

// retrieve the twin url from the incoming message
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

def issueUrl = new JsonSlurper().parseText(syncRequest.replica.payload).get(“issueUrl”)

// setting the fields correlation_id and u_issue_key
entity.correlation_id = replica.key
entity.correlation_display = issueUrl

We can now handle around 500 customer incidents per week, thanks to Exalate, which is a very good result regarding the number of products we’re dealing with. It synchronizes 45x faster than our previous solution.
