   1. In the Download Subscription Subflow section, verify that the Subflow field is set to SurveyMonkey Download Subscriptions.  
      Note:  
      The Download subscriptions check box is selected by default and you can't clear it.
   2. In the Calculate Activity Subflow section, verify that the Subflow field is set to SurveyMonkey Update User Activity.  
      Note:  
      The Download Activity check box is selected by default. If you clear it, the activity scheduled job SAM - Refresh \<displayname\> Activity isn't created.  
      In the Analyze user activity field, you can also select the date and time starting from when you want to analyze the user activity. By default, you can analyze user activity up to 60 days prior to the current date and view events performed by individual users from the time you create this profile.  
      Note:  
      Software Asset Management pulls the events from the time that you start analyzing user activity irrespective of the profile creation date.
      You can modify this value in the Last activity threshold field of your software reclamation rules. For more information, see [Review a software reclamation rule](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/QjHAOC5kmvypyG1Pph5iIQ "Use reclamation rules to cancel user subscriptions that have limited to no activity.").
   {#create-integration-profile-surveymonkey__substeps_rcm_pwm_vcc}
4. Select Save.

    * The Status field on the integration profile form changes to Draft.
    * The Validate connection button shows up on the form.
    * The current SAM - Refresh \<displayname\> Activity job gets deleted.
    {#create-integration-profile-surveymonkey__ul_adf_2v3_ddc}
{#create-integration-profile-surveymonkey__steps_xcy_2xj_bpb}

### What to do next

After the integration connects, your ServiceNow instance automatically creates software models, reclamation rules, and software subscriptions that are refreshed daily.  
After creating an integration profile, view information about the profile in the Software Asset Workspace by navigating to License operationsUser subscriptionDirect integration profiles. You can select an integration profile to view the following related lists. If all of the following related lists aren't visible for an integration profile in the default view, you can select the custom integration view from the Details tab:

* Software Models
* Unrecognized Subscription Identifiers
* Scheduled Jobs
* Scheduled Job Results
* Software Subscriptions
* Subscription Identifier Exclusion Rule
* Subscription User Exclusion Rule
{#create-integration-profile-surveymonkey__ul_gxp_qfk_rfc}

After creating an integration profile, you can define subscription exclusion rules to keep certain subscriptions from license cost calculations. For more information, see [Subscription exclusions for SaaS and SSO applications](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/kwS~TWLEZdf67e7UjappHg#subscription-exclusions "Define subscription exclusions for your SaaS and SSO applications to optimize your licensing costs by keeping the excluded subscriptions out of license cost calculations.").

If you want to set up multiple integration profiles with unique connections, create child aliases to manage different configurations and settings for each integration profile. For more information, see [Create a child alias to set up multiple integration profiles](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/o5L0ctEzWkFYzYxMhh78ew "Create a child alias to set up multiple integration profiles with unique connections and manage different configurations for each integration profile.").

Review all automatically generated reclamation rules to reclaim user subscriptions. For more information, see [Review a software reclamation rule](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/QjHAOC5kmvypyG1Pph5iIQ "Use reclamation rules to cancel user subscriptions that have limited to no activity.").  
Create software entitlements for the automatically generated software models to track used software against owned software.

* For more information on creating software entitlements in the Software Asset Management Core UI, see [Create entitlements in Software Asset Management Core UI](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/8ZR9KWQ1FY73pUmBw_wZRQ "Create entitlements in the Software Asset Management Core UI application to record your license details and allocate purchased software rights to users or devices.").
* For more information on creating software entitlements in the Software Asset Workspace, see [Create entitlements in workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ZvL7kERffOGQ6dpBU_744w "Create entitlements in the Software Asset Workspace to enter your license details and allocate purchased software rights to users or devices.").
* For more information on creating software entitlements using the Software Asset Management Playbook, see [Create entitlements using the guided walk-through](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/rw30KUYxwGuwCDdFtc0mOg "Use the guided walk-through playbook for a step-by-step process of creating entitlements.").
{#create-integration-profile-surveymonkey__ul_cbz_vhr_sqb}  
Reconciliation also runs on your subscriptions as a scheduled job or on-demand. You can view your reconciliation results in the [License Workbench](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/K_GziLbR~smXeeWp0kcdNw "Review reconciliation results in a simplified workbench view.") (Software Asset Management classic application) or the [License usage view](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Ct5YAvsPFESpnVaeLwu5_w "Use the license usage view as a single plane to understand the license position of all software products, remediate non-compliance, view reconciliation results, view, or add removal candidates, and view Software Asset Management related reports.") (Software Asset Workspace). Use these results to determine your license compliance position and to remediate any non-compliance.

* For more information on running reconciliation in the Software Asset Management classic application, see [Run software reconciliation in Software Asset Management classic](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Pic766RsbcGCoP1GsB_9RA "Reconciliation is run as a scheduled job (default is weekly), but you can also run reconciliation manually to reconcile software products in your environment on demand.").
* For more information on running reconciliation in the Software Asset Workspace, see [Run software reconciliation in the workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/SUHzxdFqMeO8rQemacW3sA "Reconciliation is run as a scheduled job (default is weekly), but you can also run reconciliation manually to reconcile software products in the Software Asset Workspace environment on-demand.").
