Summary


In this chapter, we learned about when to utilize scripting in ServiceNow, as well as when not to. We learned the differences between client side and server side scripts, as well as detailed examples of various types of different script records which execute client side, server side, or both. Finally, we learned about the built-in script editor IDE that ServiceNow provides, and some of the script editor's available macros.
