The create and update CMDB enforcement actions let you also configure and control the fields values of each created/updated asset in the CMDB based on Axonius fields.
As part of the enforcement action configuration, the Axonius to [CMDB solution name] field mapping field (e.g. Axonius to ServiceNow field mapping) lets you define map Axonius fields to the CMDB fields. The input should be key/value pairs in a JSON format.
For example: {"axonius_field1":"servicenow_field1", "axonius_field2":"servicenow_field2"}
