Overview
This topic explains how to configure and use the ServiceNow approvals integration for use with LaunchDarkly approvals.
The ServiceNow approvals integration helps your team comply with company-wide change management policies by embedding LaunchDarkly approvals into your ServiceNow workflows. It bridges LaunchDarkly approval requests with ServiceNow change management workflows.
When you enable this integration, all approval requests created in a LaunchDarkly environment generate corresponding ServiceNow standard change requests. These requests populate with relevant information about the proposed change. LaunchDarkly uses the state of the corresponding standard change request to determine if the proposed change should be acknowledged as "approved" or "declined."
To learn more about approval workflows, read Approvals.
To use the ServiceNow approvals integration, you must have an existing ServiceNow standard change template that you want to use for all proposed changes originating from LaunchDarkly.
