Get instance name of service now (dev v prod) via script

brantgluth · ‎10-31-2016

Looking to avoid hard coding debug variables and passing them amongst sub-workflows.

Were I doing standard web development w/ JavaScript, I'd do something like

var isDebug

var host = window.location.hostname;

isDebug = host.includes('dev');

Is there a way to do something similar within ServiceNow/Orchestration?

There is a system property named "instance_name" which you can reference from your script.

Here's a link explaining how to get a system property from a server side script.

Perfect. Recently added to devel by work to the system, working out my

SNLegs and where everything is. From that i was able to figure out

var thisInstanceName = gs.getProperty("instance_name");

Thank you for alleviating some hardcoding for me
