**Incident Status** is an integer in ServiceNow. We map Incident Manager incident status values to ServiceNow status values.


| Incident Manager Incident Status | ServiceNow Incident Status | 
| --- | --- | 
|  Open  |  New  | 
|  Resolved  |  Resolved  | 
| Resolved | Cancelled | 

**Priority** - In ServiceNow Incident, you can’t set the Priority field directly. The values of the **Impact **and **Urgency** fields calculate the **Priority** field. When synchronizing from AWS, we set the default priorities as below:


| Incident Manager Incident  | ServiceNow Incident | 
| --- | --- | 
|  | Impact | Urgency | Priority (Calculated) | 
| Critical | High | High | Critical (1) | 
| High | High | High | Critical (1) | 
| Medium | Medium | High | High (2) | 
| Low | Low  | High | Moderate (3) | 
| No Impact | Low  | High | Moderate (3) |
