Inputs

Input Name	Input Code	Required	Description

Input Name	Input Code	Required	Description
ServiceNow Instance Code	`FDSN_INSTANCE_CODE`	Yes	The instance Code of the ServiceNow Instance created under Topology that you will connect to. The URL, PORT, USERNAME, and PASSWORD are taken from the instance.
Request Media Type	`FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE`	Yes	Choose to return the data in JSON or XML format. If you select JSON, then use JSONPATH notation in the path expression inputs (See https://github.com/json-path/JsonPath) If you select XML, then use XPATH notation in the path expression inputs.
Table Name	`FDSN_TABLE_NAME`	Yes	The ServiceNow Table that you want to retrieve records from (e.g. change_request)
Query String	`FDR_QUERY_STRING`	No	Use the query string to filter and sort the results from ServiceNow. It may be helpful to use the Rest Explorer feature of ServiceNow to generate the query strings.
Fail workflow if http response code over 200	`FDSN_FAIL_IF_HTTP_CODE_OVER_200`	No	If true, any http code over 200 will fail the step and the workflow.
Path Expression 1	`FDSN_PATH_EXPRESSION_1`	No	Use XPATH or JSONPATH notation to return part of the response back to the workflow as `FDSN_OUTPUT_1`. See `FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE` for more information
Path Expression 2	`FDSN_PATH_EXPRESSION_2`	No	Use XPATH or JSONPATH notation to return part of the response back to the workflow as `FDSN_OUTPUT_2`. See `FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE` for more information
Path Expression 3	`FDSN_PATH_EXPRESSION_3`	No	Use XPATH or JSONPATH notation to return part of the response back to the workflow as `FDSN_OUTPUT_3`. See `FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE` for more information
Path Expression 4	`FDSN_PATH_EXPRESSION_4`	No	Use XPATH or JSONPATH notation to return part of the response back to the workflow as `FDSN_OUTPUT_4`. See `FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE` for more information
Path Expression 5	`FDSN_PATH_EXPRESSION_5`	No	Use XPATH or JSONPATH notation to return part of the response back to the workflow as `FDSN_OUTPUT_5`. See `FDR_REQUEST_MEDIA_TYPE` for more information
