What Data Can Be Synchronized?

ZigiOps supports synchronization of standard and custom fields, alert and event data, topology information, and CMDB records between monitoring tools and ITSM platforms. Each field can be mapped independently per direction.

Entity type	Direction	Examples	Common fields synchronized
Alerts / Events	Monitoring - ITSM	Dynatrace Problem - ServiceNow Incident	Node/CI, Title/Short Description, Severity/Priority, Status/State, Category, Description
Metrics	Monitoring - ITSM	Datadog Metric - ServiceNow CI metric	Metric name, Value, Timestamp, Source, Tags
Topology / CMDB	Monitoring - ITSM CMDB	OBM Topology - ServiceNow CMDB	Node name, Relationships, Attributes, CI type
Custom alert types	Both directions	Any monitoring entity - Any ITSM table	All standard and custom fields supported

How Does the Monitoring to ITSM Integration Work?

ZigiOps acts as a secure integration layer between monitoring and ITSM systems, using their native APIs and event mechanisms to read and write data.

• No scripting or custom development required

• All configuration is done through the ZigiOps UI

• Supports polling-based, event-driven, and webhook-based synchronization

• Start from a pre-built template or build a custom integration from scratch

• Apply field mappings, severity translations, state transitions, and filters

• Does not permanently store transferred business data

ZigiOps can be deployed on-premises or used as a cloud service.
