We have  BMC AR connector version 1.4 running on Fortisoar 7.4 and I am looking for action that allows to create tasks linked to incidents in BMC AR systems.

Current connector does not support create task action.

Please assist if anyone has implemented this.

    Hi,

    We will add 'Create Task' action in the next connector version. 

    By the time you can use the utilities connector to make the rest API call. Please find the attached sample playbook to achieve the same.

    Thanks for your response but when I used playbook given by you ,I am getting below error.

    I even tried to make rest call using code snippet but getting 500 response.

    Error message
    :

    Hi foreignsoc

    This error message could be caused by a JSON data format issue.
    Maybe give it a quick try to format what is in Headers like below:
    {
    "Authorization": "AR-JWT {{vars.token}}",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
    }
