Service connector capabilities

Service connectors connect your catalog to external systems. BMC Digital Workplace Catalog includes connectors. If you use BMC Helix Integration Service, a service catalog administrator can use BMC Helix Integration Service connectors in a process workflow. Developers can extend custom connectors with additional abilities, as described in Integrating BMC Helix Digital Workplace Catalog with BMC Helix Integration Service. BMC Helix Integration Service is a standalone product. You need to purchase a license to use it. 

Before you can use a connector, you must create the connection and add configuration details, as described in Configuring-service-connectors.

The following table lists the abilities of service connectors provided by BMC Digital Workplace Catalog. Some of these connectors provide the ability to import services or other items into the service catalog, as indicated in the "Catalog import" column.

Most connectors can be used in the process workflow for service fulfillment, as indicated in the "Process workflow" column.

Some connectors provide the ability to map data resources to responses in the service questionnaire, as indicated in the "Resource mapping" column.
