# Using ServiceNow Security Operations Event Ingestion Add-on for Splunk ES

Forward events on-demand from your Splunk Enterprise Security console to create a Security Incident Response \(SIR\) on the ServiceNow instance.

## Before you begin

2.  Navigate to **Apps** > **Enterprise Security**.

3.  Select **Mission Control**.

    A list of notable events generated in the Splunk console on the basis of correlation rule configured previously show up.

4.  Select any **Notable Event** from the list.

5.  Select **Ellipsis icon \(⋮\)**.

6.  From the drop down, select the **Workflow action label** configured while setting up the add-on.

    Events will go in **Splunk ES Event Import** table followed by **Splunk ES Event to Tasks** table.
