In ServiceNow,Data Sourcesdefine external data that can be imported into the platform. These sources feed data intoImport Sets, which are then transformed into ServiceNow tables.
Why These Options Are Correct?A. Local Sources (i.e. XML, CSV, Excel)
Allows importingstructured data filesstored locally or uploaded manually.
Commonly used forone-time data migrationsor periodic imports.
D. JDBC Connection
JDBC (Java Database Connectivity)allows ServiceNow to connect directly toexternal databases(e.g., MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server).
Useful forreal-time integrationswith legacy systems.
E. Network Server
Allows importing data from afile stored on a remote serverviaSFTP/FTP.
Common forautomated batch data imports.
F. LDAP Connection
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)allows ServiceNow to syncuser and group datafrom enterprise directories (e.g., Active Directory).
Used forHR, ITSM, and Identity Management.
Why Are the Other Options Incorrect?B. Implementation Spoke
Incorrectbecause "Implementation Spoke" isnot a data sourcebut aServiceNow IntegrationHub componentused for automating ITSM tasks.
C. DataHub
Incorrectbecause "DataHub" isnot a ServiceNow data source.
ServiceNow usesIntegrationHub, JDBC, REST, and SOAP APIsfor data ingestion.
