What is your reasoning behind for your integration? Can you provide additional information on your ask?

Typically SN and JSM are used for processing customer requests in a similar matters while being on two different platform.

Here is a reference link on native integration between JSM and SN - <https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/integrate-with-servicenow/>

Hope this helps.

body: Our main goal is to sync the ticket 2way if possible.

e.i. when ticket create in SN (with title, description and other field value, then it create ticket (sync) in JSM.

When status, field and comment change in JSM. SN ticket status, field and comment updated/sync.

When customer in SN commented ,add comment in JSM.

If its not possible, do you know what are the sync that can be done in JSM SN integration base on the doc you shared. Also do you know any video link with step by step procedure tutorial related in doc you shared.

Based on my knowledge two-way Bidirectional sync is not possible out of the box. You will need to utilize a third party add-ons to accomplish the tasks.

See possible candidates in Atlassian Marketplace -

[https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud\&product=jira-service-management\&query=ServiceNow](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira-service-management&query=ServiceNow)

Otherwise you will need to utilize custom development on your end using SN REST APIs and Atlassian JSM REST APIs to develop the custom solution + custom configurations.

Best, Joseph

In terms of "can you do it without add-ons" the short answer is: "no." or at least, not without incurring significant costs to build a custom integration.

The best/cheapest solution is a no-code 2-way sync platform, like [Unito](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215945/jira-two-way-integrations?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).
