Adding an Event Profile to Junos Space Service Now
An event profile is a set of scripts that are selected from an AI-Scripts bundle. Using event profiles, you can specify the event scripts you want to install on the devices. To add an event profile, you can use the default AI-Scripts bundle that is available when you install Service Now, or upload and use a new AI-Scripts bundle (see Adding a Script Bundle to Junos Space Service Now).
After you add an AI-Scripts bundle to Service Now, to be able to install the AI-Scripts bundle on the devices, you must create an event profile using this AI-Scripts bundle.
To add an event profile:
- From the Service Now navigation tree, select Administration > Event Profiles > Add Event Profile.
The Add Event Profile page appears as shown in Figure 1.
