It would be wonderful if SolarWinds had a ServiceNow Certified Integration such as Splunk, Sumo, ScienceLogic, Xenoss and others offer.
ServiceNow | Certified Partner Integrations, ITIL Integration
If you are going to dream, dream big:
Fully certified, two-way integration with all the major vendors, so that when SolarWinds sends an alert into the ticket system it gets the ticket number back. Then the alert engine has an option so that if a ticket is already open for the same alert, same element, a new alert/ticket is NOT cut.
Acknowledgement in SolarWinds causes the ticket to be updated to an "acknowledged" (but not closed) state.
There is actual service-now integration with Orion, but you would want to use the SDK. There isn't any direct API to the best of my knowledge. Alert Manager can tie into this as well, as necessary. It really depends on how you're using service-now.
Leon:
Thank you so much, you gave me a great laugh. I completely agree. I appreciate your better spelling out the requirements.
You can integrate Solarwinds with ServiceNow in the time it takes you to finish your morning coffee using eyeShare from Ayehu:

does native integration in-between NPM 11.5 and Service Now FUJI is possible now without any 3rd party tool?
My kingdom for an alert action to perform a JSON call or at least an HTTPS POST function!
Let's drag "Advanced Alerts" into the 21st century.
We are struggling to develop a supportable method for creating incident tickets in CA Service Desk from Orion advanced alerts... Leon; I like the way you think!
This episode of SolarWinds Lab dives into JSON and REST with a vengance. Although the focus is Slack integration, there's a section at the end specific to ServiceDesk and all of the techniques would work with any REST-ful application:

Meanwhile, if you check out What We're Working on Now (What We're Working on for NPM (Updated January 7th, 2016) ) you will notice that ServiceNow figures noteably into the planned improvements!
What is the plan to get node information, like host names in to ServiceNow as CI's?
Will/has servicenow certify the integration between solarwinds and servicenow?
Hello all,
Good News:
From NPM 12 you are able to integrate with ServiceNow.

This feature request was delivered in NPM v12!
Now we need an integration with CA Service Desk too!
gee, i've been waiting for this moment, too. actually, i dreamed about this for a few years. nevermind, you can always search for another option, as most of us do in case of emergency. i must admit i've found marketplaces to be a great place for clearing your mind. i think they offer plenty of options to choose from when it comes to integrations, etc. they worked at least for men. my team and i used a tool for the servicenow-solarwinds integration for a client . it's called zigiops.
