Learn more about installing a ServiceNow app.

How to configure ServiceNow OpenFrame to create an interaction for outbound calls

1. Sign in to the ServiceNow admin portal.
2. In the navigator, enter sys_properties.list to display a list of system properties.

For more information see the ServiceNow article about the Integration Management Service. If you are using another OpenFrame configuration in conjunction with the Zoom Contact Center configuration, this setting may affect the other application as it changes what happens when a click-to-dial event is generated by ServiceNow. Consult with all users using the click-to-dial feature before making a change.

How to configure the connection between ServiceNow and Zoom Contact Center

You will need to create an OAuth client within ServiceNow to facilitate the connection between Zoom Contact Center and ServiceNow. This OAuth client will be used when you configure the integration in Zoom Contact Center.

1. Sign in to the ServiceNow admin portal.
2. In the navigator, search for oauth.
3. Under System OAuth, click Application Registry.
4. Click New.
5. Click Create an OAuth API endpoint for external clients.
   Note: The default values for most of the fields should be acceptable. Other fields will be filled after the client is created.
6. Enter the following:
   • Name: Enter the display name for the connection.
   • Redirect URL: Enter https://zoom.us/cci/multi/crm-oauth-login
   • Refresh Token Lifespan: Enter the value 2147483647 (maximum allowed value)
7. Click Submit.

How to configure OpenFrame

The Zoom Contact Center ServiceNow Integration uses the OpenFrame API from ServiceNow, so you need to configure OpenFrame as part of the installation and setup.

1. Sign in to the ServiceNow admin portal.
2. In the navigator, search for openframe.
3. Under OpenFrame, click Configurations.
4. Click New to create a new configuration.
5. In the Name field, enter a display name for the configuration. 
6. Enter the following values for these fields:
   • Title: Zoom Contact Center
   • Subtitle: Softphone UI
   • Width: 650
   • Height: 650
   • Icon Class: icon-phone
   • URL: x_zvmi_zcc_int_Callbar.do
   • Active checkbox: Make sure this check box is selected.
7. Save the new configuration.

Notes:

• You may use ServiceNow User Group(s) to control which users within ServiceNow have access to the Zoom Contact Center integration. If you do not select a user group then the configuration is available to all users with the openframe user role. For specific information on each setting please see the ServiceNow documentation site.
• If you navigate to the service operations or configurable or HR agent workspace, you should see a phone icon in the top-right corner. This indicates that the user has access to an active OpenFrame configuration. Clicking the phone icon should display a screen with a login button, meaning the configuration in ServiceNow is complete.

How to configure ServiceNow user roles required by the Zoom Contact Center integration type

This section discusses the roles that need to be assigned to the ServiceNow users that will use the Zoom Contact Center integration.  These roles are required to ensure that the Servicenow users have the appropriate roles/access within ServiceNow to match the automation within Zoom Contact Center.

All

For any integration between Zoom Contact Center and ServiceNow (CSM or ITSM), the integration app requires the following role for the agent user: sn_openframe_user.

ITSM

When you configure your ServiceNow integration in Zoom Contact Center for ITSM you are allowed to select between two screen pop options for use when the User is not found.

• No action: With this option, the Zoom Contact Center integration takes no screen pop action when the calling number/email can not be found within ServiceNow. The agent can still answer the call, and can manually link the Interaction record to the appropriate ServiceNow user.
• Show user creation page: When you select this option, the agent is taken to a new user creation screen, the agent will need to add/edit an entry in the sys_user table.

Role required: user_admin

CSM

• No action: With this option, the Zoom Contact Center integration takes no screen pop action when the calling number/email can not be found within ServiceNow.  The agent can still answer the call, and can manually link the Interaction record to the appropriate ServiceNow contact/consumer.
• Create contact: When you select the option to screen pop the contact creation screen, the agent will need to edit an entry in the customer_contact table.
  Role required: sn_customerservice.contact_manager or sn_customerservice_manager
• Create consumer: When you select the option to screen pop the consumer creation screen, the agent will need to edit an entry in the csm_consumer table.
  Role required: sn_customerservice.consumer_agent

Role required: sn_customerservice.consumer_agent

Post Installation Configuration

If the integration is set up for the first time, it is mandatory to perform the below mentioned configuration. Otherwise, please make sure the below mentioned configuration is available in your ServiceNow instance.

1. Add the Video Interaction Type. To support the video call functionality of the Zoom Contact Center application a new type needs to be added for interactions. Follow the steps regarding modifying dictionary entries mentioned here to add the new type for Interactions:
   • Specify the label as Video and the value as zcc_video

1. Enable ZCC Custom Interaction View Rule CWS and add the UX View Rules Configuration
2. In the navigator of ServiceNow, search for View Rule and click Workspace View Rule. You should search for the workspace view rule that is named as ZCC Custom Interaction.
3. Click ZCC Custom Interaction View Rule CWS. View the rule and enable the Active flag.
4. Click Edit at the bottom of the screen.
   A popup window will appear with a list of UX View rule configurations.
5. In the Collection panel, Select CSM/FSM Configurable Workspace View Rule Config and move it to the right side for selection.
6. Click Save to update the UX View Rule Configuration.
7. Enable the ZCC Custom Interaction View Rule for HR and add the UX View Rules Configuration.

How to enable the ServiceNow CRM integration and add the ServiceNow OAuth connection

In this section, we will establish the oAuth connection between the Zoom Contact Center and ServiceNow. Zoom Contact Center uses this oAuth connection to facilitate the integration, including features such as user/consumer/contact lookup, screen pop, creating/updating Interaction records and phone call log records. We recommend that you use a ServiceNow service account to establish this connection and that you name the service account such that it identifies as Zoom Contact Center.  This will be beneficial to your users that are using the integration as they will see that the objects created by the Zoom Contact Center automation are listed as being created by ‘Zoom Contact Center’.

A ServiceNow admin must authorize the Zoom Contact Center service with the ServiceNow CRM application to enable the Zoom agent experience in ServiceNow.

Note: Before starting, you must contact Zoom Support to enable the ServiceNow integrations menu in the Zoom web portal.

1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
2. In the navigation menu, click Contact Center Management then Integrations.
3. In the Applications tab, click Add Integration.
4. On the Select application page, specify the following:
   • Choose the external application you would like to connect with: Select ServiceNow.
   • Select connection method: select OAuth.
5. Click Next.
6. On the Setup your external application page, specify the following:
   • Name your connection: Enter ServiceNow. This name will be used to refer to this URL inside the Zoom Contact Center application instance.
   • Subdomain: Enter the subdomain for your ServiceNow instance.
7. Click Login to ServiceNow.
   To establish your connection, you will be taken to the ServiceNow sign-in screen (if you are not already signed in).
8. Click Allow if prompted
   In the Zoom web portal, you will see the message Zoom Contact Center has successfully connected to ServiceNow.
9. At the bottom of the screen, click Next.
   You will be shown the Chanel Setup screen.
10. In the Channel Setup screen, select the required channels. Once the required channels are selected, channel configuration can be started by clicking the Start Setup button.
    You will be shown the Channel configuration screen where you are asked to fill out information that will affect how the Zoom Contact Center ServiceNow integration interacts with your ServiceNow instance.
