Build Confidence into Your Network Automations with Itential’s Dynamic JSON Forms
In order to have confidence in what you’re automating, network teams need the ability to deliver structured and validated input data to a network automation. One of the fundamental components of the Itential Automation Platform is JSON Forms, which does just that. These forms can be quickly created using a low-code, drag-and-drop canvas, tested, and used with an automation. One unique feature of Itential’s JSON Forms that makes this possible is the ability to populate data from a drop-down form element using a dynamic API call. This provides an additional set of guardrails to validate input to the data provided to an automation and using dynamic API calls within a form ensures that the most up to date and valid data is presented to a user before an automation is run.
In this demo, Rich Martin, Director of Technical Marketing at Itential, shows step-by-step how to:
- Demonstrate building and testing of JSON Forms using a visual, low-code canvas.
- Implement API calls to populate data dynamically data in drop down elements.
- Access data from API calls within the Itential platform.
- Access data from API calls to external systems like ITSMs or IPAMs.
- Utilize Dynamic JSON Forms in an Itential workflow and from ServiceNow.
