Oracle Cloud Infrastructure \(OCI\) discovery
reference brazil Updated Sep 10, 2026 6 min read oracle-cloud-infrastructure-discovery.md
ServiceNow Discovery uses the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) discovery patterns to provide real-time elasticity for enterprise applications by combining Oracle autonomous services, integrated security, and cloud compute. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.
Starting with version 1.29.0, Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns supports the discovery of OCI GovCloud accounts.
Request apps on the Store
Visit the ServiceNow Store to view all the available apps, and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the ServiceNow Store version history release notes.
Prerequisites
-
Verify that the following applications are installed
Verify that the following applications are installed and up to date:
- Cloud Access Interface (starting from version 1.0.0)
- Visibility Content
- CMDB CI Class Models

Configure Oracle API credentials
Ensure that your OCI credentials are configured and that your private and public keys are converted to the RSA format. For more information, see Create Oracle API credentials.
-
Create OCI service account
For more information, see Create OCI service accounts.
-
Create a cloud discovery schedule
To run a cloud discovery at scale, see Create an OCI Discovery schedule in Discovery Admin Workspace.
Create a discovery schedule to run LDCs on.
- Navigate to Discovery > Discovery Schedules.
- Select Cloud Discovery.
- In the Provider field, select OCI. Fill in the form to create an account or select an existing one. For more information, see Create OCI service accounts.
- On the Select Datacenters page, filter which LDCs you want to run the discovery.
