    Key Features

    • Cloud Platform Support: Supports provisioning for AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), VMware vSphere, and IBM Cloud (earlier versions), with ongoing updates and enhancements.
    • Version Control Integration: Compatible with GitHub, GitLab, and Azure DevOps repositories for sourcing Terraform modules, facilitating streamlined infrastructure as code (IaC) workflows.
    • Terraform Version Compatibility: Supports multiple Terraform versions including v1.1 and v1.2, ensuring compatibility with the latest Terraform features.
    • Enhanced Security and Access Controls: Introduced granular, feature-specific admin roles replacing broad admin access to minimize security risks. Query-level data access restrictions via Deny-Unless ACLs and Query ACLs further safeguard data.
    • PowerShell Support: End-to-end PowerShell operations support across MID Servers and Windows remote machines with automatic detection and selection of PowerShell versions, defaulting to PowerShell 7 for reliability.
    • Governance and Change Management: Includes Change Governance workflows to manage updates to cloud catalog items when IaC artifacts change, alongside IaC Discovery schedules to maintain accurate configurations.
    • Multi-Repository Support: Enables managing Terraform configurations across multiple repositories within the Terraform Connector app.
    • Read-Only Field Protection: Implements a new ChoiceList mechanism to prevent unauthorized client-side updates of read-only fields, enhancing application security.

    Key Outcomes for ServiceNow Customers

    • Customers can automate cloud resource provisioning across multiple clouds using Terraform directly within ServiceNow, improving operational efficiency.
    • Enhanced security controls reduce risk by limiting access and preventing unauthorized modifications.
    • Support for modern Terraform versions and multiple version control systems ensures flexibility and integration with existing DevOps toolchains.
    • Governance features help maintain compliance and track infrastructure changes effectively.
    • Improved PowerShell support streamlines automation on Windows environments connected via MID Servers.

    Version history

    Version 1.10.0 - June 2026
    Fixed: Manage access through predefined query access controls for all Cloud Services Catalog tables
    Version 1.9.1 - December 2025
    • New: Introduced granular, feature-specific admin roles to replace the broad 'admin' role, significantly enhancing security by minimizing excess access. These new roles are seamlessly integrated into the standard administrative experience.
    • Changed: Enabled end-to-end support for PowerShell operations across MID Servers and Windows remote machines. The system now automatically detects and selects the most appropriate PowerShell version, defaulting to PowerShell 7 where available, to ensure more consistent and reliable execution of scripts.
    • Fixed: Implemented Read-Only Field Remediation by introducing a new ChoiceList, 'read_only_option,' to replace the previous 'read_only' field (which was prone to unauthorized client-side updates). This change prevents client-side manipulation of read-only fields and significantly mitigates security risks across all applications.
