The problem

A customer reports an issue to sales in Salesforce while support tracks it in ServiceNow. The two records evolve separately, so the account team and the service desk give the customer conflicting answers.

The solution

ZigiOps links each Salesforce case to its ServiceNow incident and keeps them synchronized in real time. Priority, account context and comments propagate both ways, so everyone sees the same customer truth.

Beyond the basics

More control over how ServiceNow ↔ Salesforce syncs

Real-time, continuous sync

Updates flow the moment they happen — no polling delays, no scheduled batch jobs.

Conditional triggers

Scope every sync with filters on priority, record type, account or any custom field.

Conflict resolution & audit trail

Built-in logic decides which update wins and logs every decision for full traceability.

Automatic recovery

Sync resumes on its own after downtime or network interruptions — nothing to restart by hand.

Safe test mode

Validate field mappings and rules against real data before the integration goes live.

Sync health monitoring

See sync status and catch failures early, without digging through logs.

AI-assisted troubleshooting

When a sync fails, ZigiOps surfaces the likely cause and a suggested fix — no log-diving required.

Real use case

One customer issue, sales and support aligned

A customer reports a problem to their account team in Salesforce while support resolves it in ServiceNow. ZigiOps keeps both records telling the same story.

STEP 1
Case opened in Salesforce

The account team logs a case with priority and the customer's account context.

STEP 2
ZigiOps creates a linked incident

A mapped ServiceNow incident is created and kept linked to the Salesforce case.

STEP 3
Support resolves in ServiceNow

Priority and comments sync back to the case, so sales always sees current status.

RESOLVED
One consistent customer story

The case closes in step with the incident — no conflicting answers to the customer.

ServiceNow ↔ Salesforce FAQ

Is the ServiceNow–Salesforce sync bidirectional?

Yes. Cases and incidents stay aligned in both directions in real time, with conflict-resolution logic keeping both systems authoritative.

What fields map between the two?

Case ↔ incident, priority, account ↔ company, contact ↔ caller, and comments — all in both directions with full fidelity, fully configurable in the visual editor.

Do I need Apex or custom code?

No. The entire integration is configured no-code in ZigiOps — no Apex, triggers or ServiceNow business rules to maintain.

Can I connect multiple ServiceNow or Salesforce instances?

Yes. ZigiOps supports unlimited connections, so one Salesforce org can sync with several ServiceNow environments — or the reverse — each with its own mapping and rules.

What happens if a case and incident are updated at the same time?

Built-in conflict-resolution logic decides which update takes precedence and logs the decision, so both systems stay authoritative and every change is auditable.

Can I limit the sync to specific cases or incidents?

Yes. Conditional triggers let you scope the sync by priority, record type, account or any other field, so only the records that matter cross over.
