Slack ServiceNow Incident Search Bot

September 30, 2025

Aladuddin Aladin

This template connects Slack with ServiceNow, allowing users to search for incidents directly from Slack. When triggered, a Slack modal lets users specify incident state and priority, and optionally choose a Slack channel to post the results. The workflow retrieves incidents from ServiceNow, formats them into Slack’s Block Kit, and delivers results either to a selected channel or as a private DM. If no incidents are found, users are notified accordingly.

This automation streamlines IT service management by enabling quick ServiceNow searches without leaving Slack.

✨ Features

  • Slack Modal Interface – Collects search parameters (state, priority, target channel) from users.
  • ServiceNow Integration – Queries incidents using state and priority filters.
  • Smart Result Handling – Returns up to the 5 most recent incidents, formatted for Slack.
  • Dynamic Output – Sends results to either a Slack channel or direct message.
  • No Match Handling – Notifies users when no incidents meet the criteria.
  • Clean UX – Ensures Slack receives proper 200 responses to prevent UI errors.
