ServiceNow provides client-side JavaScript APIs:

• g_form — object whose properties are methods used to manage form and its fields in the record.

• g_user — object whose properties contain session information about the currently logged in user

  and their role(s).

• g_scratchpad — object passed to a Client Script from a server-side script known as a Display Business

  Rule. The object's properties and values are determined by the server-side script.

In addition to these pre-defined global variables, you also have any local variables you declare in a
script.
