Hi Kevin,

As it is possible. You can use snippet as below.

var gr = new GlideRecord('task');
gr.get('sys_id');
var htmlDesc = gr.description.getDisplayValue();
var txtDesc = htmlDesc.replace(/<(?:.|\n)*?>/gm, '');
gs.print(txtDesc);

For additional references check the link suggested by Albert & additionally check link.

Hi Kevin,

you will have to remove the html tags

this script should work fine

var str = htmlValue.replace(/<\/?[^>]+(>|$)/g, "");

gs.info(str);
