Summary of Service Graph Connector for Tanium Release Notes
The Service Graph Connector for Tanium integration enables ServiceNow customers to synchronize asset and software data from Tanium Asset into the ServiceNow Configuration Management Database (CMDB). It facilitates periodic data imports using Tanium Asset views, supporting both hardware and software information, including software usage data. This integration is the recommended approach to keep CMDB updated with accurate Tanium data.

Key Features
- Multi-instance support: Added in version 1.3.0, allowing synchronization across multiple Tanium instances.
- Relationship creation: The connector creates relationships between servers discovered by Tanium and virtual machines found by other sources, enhancing CMDB data linkage (introduced in version 1.8.0).
- Software usage and removal improvements: Supports software usage data import and optimizes software removal logic for multiple connections and efficient performance (improved in versions 1.6.0 and 1.8.0).
- Enhanced data handling: Includes pagination support for application data sources, processes TCP and running process data, and handles empty responses from Tanium (added in version 1.4.0).
- Data accuracy fixes: Cleanses serial numbers, appends connection alias IDs to native keys for multi-instance accuracy, and corrects plugin naming for software removal scripts.
- User experience improvements: Restricts admin menus to appropriate users and resolves ETL transformation errors to ensure smoother operations.
Key Outcomes
- Reliable and scalable synchronization of Tanium Asset data into ServiceNow CMDB with multi-instance and relationship mapping capabilities.
- Improved CMDB data quality with accurate hardware/software records, timely software usage data, and automated cleanup of uninstalled software.
- Enhanced integration stability and performance through bug fixes addressing errors during data import, ETL processing, and software record management.
- Streamlined administration with tailored UI experiences and parameter configurations to customize data retention and scanning behaviors.

- This integration imports data from Tanium Asset into ServiceNow Service Graph. Use the integration to sync your Tanium Asset data to the ServiceNow Configuration Management Database (CMDB). This integration uses Tanium Asset views and allows for periodic data synchronization from Tanium. This is the recommended method to bring data from Tanium Asset to CMDB with support for bringing software usage data as well.
