Azure Service Endpoint Policy pattern-based discovery
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds Azure services on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.
Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements
-
Verify the REST API permissions
Download the Cloud Discovery patterns spreadsheet so you can grant user permissions required for running the Discovery patterns. In addition to permissions, the spreadsheet also includes useful information such as pattern names, types, CI Classes, and links to vendor documentation. New patterns are available quarterly, so check periodically to be sure you have the latest version of the spreadsheet.
-
Verify the Microsoft Azure discovery prerequisites
For more information, see the prerequisites section in Microsoft Azure Cloud discovery using patterns.
-
Remove resources from the Resource Inclusion List table
Verify that the relevant resource isn't listed in the Resource Inclusion List [sa_cloud_inventory_resource_whitelist] table to avoid duplicate discovery. For more information on removing resources from the Resource Inclusion List, see Microsoft Azure resource inventory discovery.
-
Enable the relevant pattern
The pattern for this service is disabled by default. Starting with Visibility Content version 6.28.0, activating or deactivating a pattern won't be considered a customization, and it will continue to receive updates. Patterns that were previously activated or deactivated will reset to the latest predefined version after upgrading while retaining the last active field value. For more information on enabling patterns, see Activate a disabled pattern.
-
Configure the Discovery schedule to support GovCloud
Discovering Azure GovCloud (US) accounts requires using a datacenter URL when setting up an Azure service account. For more information, see Set up Azure service accounts.
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in both CMDB and non-CMDB tables.
Data stored in non-CMDB tables
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in the non-CMDB tables when running the Azure - Service Endpoint Policy - Extended Inventory(LP) pattern.
You can review the non-CMDB Azure tables by navigating to All > Configuration > Azure. You can also search the navigation filter for the specific pattern name.

Data stored in CMDB tables
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in the CMDB when running the Azure - Service Endpoint Policy - Extended Inventory(LP) pattern.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|

| Operational status [operational_status] | Operational status of the resource. Default value is Operational. |
| Resource type [resource_type] | Type of resource. The value is set to microsoft.network/serviceendpointpolicies. |
CI relationships
The Azure - Service Endpoint Policy - Extended Inventory(LP) pattern creates these relationships to support Azure Service Endpoint Policy discovery.
| CI | Relationship | CI |
|---|---|---|
| Azure Service Endpoint Policy Definition [cmdb_azure_service_endpoint_policy_definition] | References | Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] |
| Cloud Subnet [cmdb_ci_cloud_subnet] | Uses::Used by | Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] |

| Azure Service Endpoint Policy [cmdb_azure_service_endpoint_policy_service_endpoint_policy] | References | Cloud Resource [cmdb_ci_cmp_resource] |
Azure tag discovery
The pattern collects tags and populates them in the Key Value [cmdb_key_value] table.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Key [key] | Tag name. |
| Value [value] | Tag value. |

# Azure Service Endpoint Policy pattern-based discovery
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds Azure services on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.
## Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements
- **Verify the REST API permissions**
Download the [Cloud Discovery patterns spreadsheet](https://downloads.docs.servicenow.com/resource/enus/api/servicenow-discovery-patterns-api-details.xlsx) so you can grant user permissions required for running the Discovery patterns.
