ServiceNow MCP Server

ServiceNow MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that interfaces with ServiceNow, allowing AI agents to access and manipulate ServiceNow data through a secure API. This server enables natural language interactions with ServiceNow, making it easier to search for records, update them, and manage scripts.

Features

Resources

  • servicenow://incidents: List recent incidents
  • servicenow://incidents/{number}: Get a specific incident by number
  • servicenow://users: List users
  • servicenow://knowledge: List knowledge articles
  • servicenow://tables: List available tables
  • servicenow://tables/{table}: Get records from a specific table
  • servicenow://schema/{table}: Get the schema for a table

Tools

Basic Tools
  • create_incident: Create a new incident
  • update_incident: Update an existing incident
  • search_records: Search for records using text query
  • get_record: Get a specific record by sys_id
  • perform_query: Perform a query against ServiceNow
  • add_comment: Add a comment to an incident (customer visible)
  • add_work_notes: Add work notes to an incident (internal)
Natural Language Tools
  • natural_language_search: Search for records using natural language (e.g., "find all incidents about SAP")
  • natural_language_update: Update records using natural language (e.g., "Update incident INC0010001 saying I'm working on it")
  • update_script: Update ServiceNow script files (script includes, business rules, etc.)

Installation

From PyPI

pip install mcp-server-servicenow

From Source

git clone https://github.com/michaelbuckner/servicenow-mcp.git cd servicenow-mcp pip install -e .

Usage

Command Line

Run the server using the Python module:

python -m mcp_server_servicenow.cli --url "https://your-instance.service-now.com/" --username "your-username" --password "your-password"

Or use environment variables:

export SERVICENOW_INSTANCE_URL="https://your-instance.service-now.com/" export SERVICENOW_USERNAME="your-username" export SERVICENOW_PASSWORD="your-password" python -m mcp_server_servicenow.cli

Configuration in Cline

To use this MCP server with Cline, add the following to your MCP settings file:

{ "mcpServers": { "servicenow": { "command": "/path/to/your/python/executable", "args": [ "-m", "mcp_server_servicenow.cli", "--url", "https://your-instance.service-now.com/", "--username", "your-username", "--password", "your-password" ], "disabled": false, "autoApprove": [] } } }

Note: Make sure to use the full path to the Python executable that has the mcp-server-servicenow package installed.

Natural Language Examples

Searching Records

You can search for records using natural language queries:

find all incidents about email search for incidents related to network issues show me all incidents with high priority

Updating Records

You can update records using natural language commands:

Update incident INC0010001 saying I'm working on it Set incident INC0010002 to in progress Close incident INC0010003 with resolution: fixed the issue

Managing Scripts

You can update ServiceNow scripts from local files:

Update the ServiceNow script include "HelloWorld" with the contents of hello_world.js Upload utils.js to ServiceNow as a script include named "UtilityFunctions" Update @form_validation.js, it's a client script called "FormValidation"

Authentication Methods

The server supports multiple authentication methods:

  1. Basic Authentication: Username and password
  2. Token Authentication: OAuth token
  3. OAuth Authentication: Client ID, Client Secret, Username, and Password

Development

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+
