ServiceNow integration for Dimension Labs

This brings in each ServiceNow Customer Service Management (CSM) case as one conversation: the Additional comments on it, from the customer and from your agents. Work notes are internal and stay out. You run it on your side: a small script pulls from the ServiceNow Table API and posts each comment to the universal API.

[01] What comes acrossFrom ServiceNow into one format

Every ServiceNow message, in the same shape as everything else.

Each record lands in the Dimension Labs conversation format, so Dimensions, reports and the agent work the same way as for every other source.

ServiceNowDimension Labs
journal entry, column SN_JOURNAL_TEXT_FIELD text

Only element=comments (Additional comments). Work notes are never requested.

case contact userId

The contact's sys_id, on every comment of the case.

journal sys_created_by equals the contact's user_name incoming

true for the contact's comments, false for everyone else's.

case number sessionId

Prefix it, for example servicenow-CS0001234.

case number conversationId

Same value as sessionId.

journal sys_created_on dimensionlabs_timestamp

UTC without an offset. toMillis reads it as UTC.

case state, priority, account platformJson

account is the customer account's sys_id: use it to join to account data.

[02] How to connect ServiceNowUniversal API

5 steps. Then it runs on its own.

A small job on your side reads ServiceNow through its API and posts each message to the Dimension Labs universal API. The guide gives the steps, the field mapping and the code. Run the job once for history, then every 15 minutes. A live source is enriched automatically every day; history is enriched with a backfill.

Rate limits: ServiceNow lets admins set hourly rate limit rules for inbound REST requests, by user, role or for everyone. A request over the limit returns 429 with a Retry-After header in seconds (inbound REST API rate limiting).

What you need

  • A ServiceNow instance with Customer Service Management, and its name (the yourinstance in yourinstance.service-now.com).
  • A ServiceNow admin, to create an integration user.
  • An integration user that can read the Case (sn_customerservice_case), Journal Entry (sys_journal_field) and Contact (customer_contact) tables. The Table API returns only what this user's roles and access controls allow, so your admin picks the roles.
  • A Dimension Labs API key for a new Universal API source.

[03] What you can ask

Questions teams answer with ServiceNow data.

  • Which ticket themes come before a cancellation?
  • What drives repeat contacts this month?
  • Which issues take the most agent time, by reason?
