ServiceNow Pull API
ServicePress 2.0 optionally supports legacy /spnow/v1 pull endpoints for backward compatibility with existing ServiceNow integrations.
Supported compatibility routes include:
/spnow/v1/sites/spnow/v1/networks/spnow/v1/network_info/spnow/v1/site_settings
These routes are:
- Capability protected
- Multisite aware
- Governed through the new 2.0 architecture
- Intended for migration and compatibility workflows
Enterprise Multisite Safety
ServicePress 2.0 was designed specifically for enterprise and large multisite WordPress environments.
The platform introduces controlled multisite context handling, scoped synchronization workflows, capability-protected administrative operations, and optional compatibility APIs designed to minimize operational risk in large distributed WordPress networks.
ServicePress does not perform uncontrolled recursive synchronization or unmanaged background crawling across multisite environments.
Legal Disclosure
ServicePress facilitates operational integration workflows between WordPress and ServiceNow environments.
Each organization is responsible for:
- The configuration of synchronization workflows
- Data governance and transport policies
- ServiceNow operational workflows
- WordPress administrative governance
- Compliance and operational review processes
ServicePress stores configuration and operational records required to execute configured integration workflows. Data transmitted to external systems is limited by the configured synchronization, privacy, and data-scope controls.
