Accessing ServiceNow from an Audit
Most of the information for this beta feature needs to be updated within ServiceNow, which can be accessed directly from ZenGRC.
The quickest way to open an audit in ServiceNow is directly from the Audits page prior to accessing the individual audit. To do this, complete the following steps:
- Click Audits in the left-hand navigation.
- Scroll to desired audit.
- Click Open in ServiceNow.
If the individual audit summary page is already open from the Audits home page, access ServiceNow by completing the following:
- Click Actions | Open in ServiceNow.
Working with Requests
| Tip | ||
|---|---|---|

ServiceNow audit requests cannot be assigned within ZenGRC. Assignees can only be added in the ServiceNow instance after the audit has been started. |
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|

ServiceNow audit requests do not display in the System of Record | Requests or in the To-Do List. The requests can only be viewed in bulk within the individual audit and in ServiceNow. |
Editing a ServiceNow Request

- Click Audits and open the desired ServiceNow audit.
- Click Requests (in ServiceNow).
- Find the request and click View.
- On the resulting page, only the Comments field can be updated in ZenGRC. Start typing in the Comments text field to prompt an Add button.
