19.5 Setup your ServiceNow Flow

19.5.1 Open the Flow

In ServiceNow, in the Filter Navigator, enter the search term Flow Designer. Click Flow Designer.

You’ll then see this.

Click the Search icon and search for the flow that is named ServiceNow CSM Case ingestion to AEP.

Click to open the flow ServiceNow CSM Case ingestion to AEP.

You’ll then see this:

Your flow already has all the required building blocks, you now need to complete this configuration.

It’s important to understand that this flow will be triggered when a customer service management case is created or updated. A case is created or updated when a Customer Service Agent has had an interaction with a customer.

19.5.2 Action 1 - Get Entity Information

Click to open Action 1 - Get Entity Information. This configuration was created by importing the XML file in one of the previous exercises. This action should look like this:

• Entity: XDM Individual Profile
• Identity Field: Email
• Identity Value: Trigger > Case Record > Consumer > Email

The goal of this action is to verify if the customer that contacted the Service Center, already exists in Adobe Experience Platform. Based on the response from Adobe Experience Platform, a different next action will be triggered.

Action 2 in this flow verifies if the customer was found or not. If the customer was found in Adobe Experience Platform, the next action will be Action 3. If the customer wasn’t found in Adobe Experience Platform, the next action will be Action 4, which will actually create the customer in Adobe Experience Platform.

If your configuration corresponds with the above image, continue with the next action.

19.5.3 Action 3 - Update Consumer Record

Click to open Action 3 - Update Consumer Record. You’ll then see this.

The goal of this step is to read the response from Adobe Experience Platform, and filter out the values for a couple of fields. In this use case, you need to collect the values for the fields Churn Value, Product Affinity and Product Usage from the response from Adobe Experience Platform.

This configuration was copied from the XML template that you imported before, and its configuration isn’t correct. You need to verify the mapping for each of the below three fields.

First, click the X icon on each of those three mapped fields to remove the current mapping. You’ll then have this:
