Hi Kishore,

Please find the modified code below. I hope this is what you are looking for.

var list = current.watch_list;

  var array = list.toString().split(",");

  for (var i=0; i < array.length; i++) {

    gs.print("Display value is: " + array[i]);

  }

I hope this helps.Please mark correct/helpful based on impact

gr.initialize();
gs.print(gr.getDisplayValue());

var fields = current.getFields();
for (var i = 0; i < fields.size(); i++) { 
   var field = fields.get(i);
   var name = field.getName(); 
   var value = field.getDisplayValue(); 
   gs.print(i + ". " + name + "=" + value);

If your objective in this case is to identify the user's associated with the watch_list, then this will do it:

BTW, avoid calling arrays 'array'. (Or any other data type)

var watch_list = current.getValue('watch_list'); // get the comma separated sys_ids

  var list = watch_list.split(","); store it in an array

  for (var i=0; i < list.length; i++) {

        var user = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

        user.get(list[i]);

        gs.print("Display value is: " + user.getDisplayValue());

  }
