Service now apis and jena

Question

Can anyone suggest me how i can use ServiceNow Api's and i did a bit of research on it and found it requires authentication. Is it true?

also

I need jena for java 1.7 inorder to use sparql query.It is showing major.minor version 52.0 which is because jena is expecting java 1.8 but i want to work on 1.7

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/apache/jena/query/ResultSet : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

I know this isn't a technical question but any kind of help would be very helpful.

Answer 1

yes typically most ServiceNow APIs require authentication. You can use either Basic or OAuth2. You can find more info about it here: http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=REST_API#Security . Hope this helps.
