You need to look at the sys_audit table for the information you are looking for. The sys_history_line table only has data after you view the history of a record and the system deletes it every time you view the history or it gets to a certain age.

hi ,
there I have only today's data only, but unfortunately it's not working below code,
Code not checking every SysID
var arr=[];
var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
gr.addEncodedQuery('state=1');
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
gs.info('Gate 1 '+gr.sys_id);
arr.push(gr.sys_id);
}
gs.info("Array Length "+arr.length);
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
var ttgr = new GlideRecord('sys_history_line');
ttgr.addQuery('set.id', arr[i]);
// ttgr.addNotNullQuery('old');
ttgr.query();
while (ttgr.next()) {
gs.info('Gate 2 ' + ttgr.getDisplayValue('set') + " " + arr[i]);
}
}
OUTPUT : Incident: INC0000054 d71da88ac0a801670061eabfe4b28f77 coming every time

if we take "a623cdb073a023002728660c4cf6a768" don't have any info message from second script block 'sys_history_line' in OUTPUT.
when i go manually and go and check data existed in table , so script it has to check and return info message from second script loop sys_history_line block right. but it is not happening

Like I said, you cannot use History Line for what you are trying to do. You need to use sys_audit to get the information you are looking for.
