.SYNOPSIS Create a new ServiceNow session .DESCRIPTION Create a new ServiceNow session via credentials, OAuth, or access token. This session will be used by default for all future calls. Optionally, you can specify the api version you'd like to use; the default is the latest. To use OAuth, ensure you've set it up, https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-platform-administration/page/administer/security/task/t_SettingUpOAuth.html. .PARAMETER Url Base domain for your ServiceNow instance, eg. tenant.domain.com .PARAMETER Credential Username and password to connect. This can be used standalone to use basic authentication or in conjunction with ClientCredential for OAuth. .PARAMETER ClientCredential Required for OAuth. Credential where the username is the Client ID and the password is the Secret. .PARAMETER AccessToken Provide the access token directly if obtained outside of this module. .PARAMETER Proxy Use a proxy server for the request, rather than connecting directly. Provide the full url. .PARAMETER ProxyCredential Credential of user who can access Proxy. If not provided, the current user will be used. .PARAMETER ApiVersion Specific API version to use. The default is the latest. .PARAMETER GetAllTable Populate $ServiceNowTable with data from all tables the user has access to .PARAMETER PassThru Provide the resulting session object to the pipeline as opposed to setting as a script scoped variable to be used by default for other calls. This is useful if you want to have multiple sessions with different api versions, credentials, etc. .EXAMPLE New-ServiceNowSession -Url tenant.domain.com -Credential $mycred Create a session using basic authentication and save it to a script-scoped variable .EXAMPLE New-ServiceNowSession -Url tenant.domain.com -Credential $mycred -ClientCredential $myClientCred Create a session using OAuth and save it to a script-scoped variable .EXAMPLE New-ServiceNowSession -Url tenant.domain.com -AccessToken 'asdfasd9f87adsfkksk3nsnd87g6s' Create a session with an existing access token and save it to a script-scoped variable .EXAMPLE $session = New-ServiceNowSession -Url tenant.domain.com -Credential $mycred -ClientCredential $myClientCred -PassThru Create a session using OAuth and save it as a local variable to be provided to functions directly .EXAMPLE New-ServiceNowSession -Url tenant.domain.com -Credential $mycred -Proxy http://1.2.3.4 Create a session utilizing a proxy to connect .INPUTS None .OUTPUTS Hashtable if -PassThru provided .LINK https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-platform-administration/page/administer/security/reference/r_OAuthAPIRequestParameters.html #> function New-ServiceNowSession { [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'BasicAuth')] param( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [Alias('ServiceNowUrl')] [string] $Url, [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'BasicAuth')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'OAuth')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'BasicAuthProxy')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'OAuthProxy')] [Alias('Credentials')] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $Credential, [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'OAuth')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'OAuthProxy')] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $ClientCredential, [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'AccessToken')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'AccessTokenProxy')] [string] $AccessToken, [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'BasicAuthProxy')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'OAuthProxy')] [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'AccessTokenProxy')] [string] $Proxy, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = 'BasicAuthProxy')] [Parameter(ParameterSetName = 'OAuthProxy')] [Parameter(ParameterSetName = 'AccessTokenProxy')] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $ProxyCredential, [Parameter()] [int] $ApiVersion, [Parameter()] [switch] $GetAllTable, [Parameter()] [switch] $PassThru ) Write-Verbose $PSCmdLet.ParameterSetName if ( $ApiVersion -le 0 ) { $version = '' } else { $version = ('/v{0}' -f $ApiVersion) } $newSession = @{ Domain = $Url BaseUri = ('https://{0}/api/now{1}' -f $Url, $version) } if ( $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('Proxy') ) { $newSession.Add('Proxy', $Proxy) if ( $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('ProxyCredential') ) { $newSession.Add('ProxyCredential', $ProxyCredential) } } switch -Wildcard ($PSCmdLet.ParameterSetName) { 'OAuth*' { $params = @{ Uri = 'https://{0}/oauth_token.do' -f $Url Body = @{ 'grant_type' = 'password' 'client_id' = $ClientCredential.UserName 'client_secret' = $ClientCredential.GetNetworkCredential().Password 'username' = $Credential.UserName 'password' = $Credential.GetNetworkCredential().Password } Method = 'Post' UseBasicParsing = $true } # need to add this manually here, in addition to above, since we're making a rest call before our session is created if ( $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('Proxy') ) { $params.Add('Proxy', $Proxy) if ( $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('ProxyCredential') ) { $params.Add('ProxyCredential', $ProxyCredential) } else { $params.Add('ProxyUseDefaultCredentials', $true) } } $oldProgressPreference = $ProgressPreference $ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue' $response = Invoke-WebRequest @params # set the progress pref back now that done with invoke-webrequest $ProgressPreference = $oldProgressPreference if ( $response.Content ) { $token = $response.Content | ConvertFrom-Json $newSession.Add('AccessToken', (New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential('AccessToken', ($token.access_token | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force)))) $newSession.Add('RefreshToken', (New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential('RefreshToken', ($token.refresh_token | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force)))) } else { # invoke-webrequest didn't throw an error, but we didn't get a token back either throw ('"{0} : {1}' -f $response.StatusCode, $response | Out-String ) } } 'AccessToken*' { $newSession.Add('AccessToken', (New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential('AccessToken', ($AccessToken | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force)))) } 'BasicAuth*' { $newSession.Add('Credential', $Credential) } Default { } } # Write-Verbose 'Retrieving list of classes for this instance.
