    Procedimento

    1. Create a CI.

      1. Navigate to All > Configuration > Application Service.
      2. Select New.
      3. In the form, enter the name.
        The name must be the service name provided in the ServiceNow Cloud Observability platform.
      4. From the Operational Status list, set the operational status to Operational.
      5. Select Next.
      6. Select Done.
