ServiceNow ITSM Configuration

Permission and Roles

These are the ServiceNow roles and the permissions that are needed to install the application.

Create Users

This step is optional. If you do not want to create a user, then System Admin can access the Rapid7 Threat Command for ITSM Application.

ServiceNow platform admin creates the various users for the application.
