Adding other fields to the External Event Import

Mapping

The external_event import mapping defines several fields for use with the sd_event executable. For other

fields to be utilized during automatic incident creation, the import mapping must be updated to include

the new fields. The following procedure describes how to update the import mapping so that the

Assignment information can be filled in automatically.

1.

Start the Service Desk Administrator Console.

2.

Navigate to Data>Data Exchange>Import Mapping.

3.

Select and open the external_event Import Mapping.

4.

Add a new mapping for the

Assignment;To Workgroup

field.

5.

In the External Property field, enter

IM_WORKGROUP

.

NOTE:

The workgroup that will be used in this field must already be defined in Service Desk by the

user. For example, to set the IM_WORKGROUP field to ”Storage Specialists”, this workgroup would

need to be created separately in Service Desk.

6.

Click OK to save the changes to the import mapping.
