Create a REST credential for Infoblox activities

All Infoblox activities require a REST credential to manage IP addresses from the Infoblox DDI server.

Before you begin

Before starting this procedure, make sure you have the following:

  • A properly configured and running Infoblox DDI Grid Server.
  • REST credentials defined on the Infoblox DDI server.

Role required: admin

About this task

You must create a REST credential record on the ServiceNow instance that each Infoblox activity can use to access management features on the Infoblox server.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > Orchestration > Credentials and click New.

  2. In the list of credential types, select Basic Auth Credentials.

  3. Create the credential record with a logical name, such as InfobloxCred.

  4. Right-click in the header bar of your new credential record and select Copy sys_id from the context menu.

    Follow browser instructions to copy the sys_id if browser security measures restrict this function.

  5. Paste the sys_id into the restCredentials input field of each activity you use.
