Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds Azure App Service web applications in 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.

This pattern discovers Azure App Service web applications only. For Azure Functions discovery, see Microsoft Azure Functions discovery with Patterns.

Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements

  • Verify the Microsoft Azure discovery prerequisites

    For more information, see the prerequisites section in Microsoft Azure Cloud discovery using patterns.

  • 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.

CI relationships and references

The Azure WebSite (LP) pattern creates the following relationships and references to support Azure WebSite discovery. References link to records in other tables and don't appear in the CI Relationship [cmdb_rel_ci] table.

CI Relationship CI
Cloud WebServer [cmdb_ci_cloud_webserver] Hosted on::Hosts Azure Datacenter [cmdb_ci_azure_datacenter]
Cloud WebServer [cmdb_ci_cloud_webserver] Owns::Owned by IP Address [cmdb_ci_ip_address]*

* This relationship is created only when the web application has a non-empty inbound IP address and an FQDN.

CI Field Referenced CI
Key Value [cmdb_key_value] Configuration item [configuration_item] Cloud WebServer [cmdb_ci_cloud_webserver]

Azure Tag discovery

The Azure WebSite (LP) pattern collects tags and populates them in the Key Value [cmdb_key_value] table.

Field Description
