Hi @mani55 ,

To retrieve a single group from the sys_user_group table in ServiceNow using the get() method, you can do something like this in a script:

var groupName = 'Example Group Name'; // Replace with the actual group name
var group = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
group.addQuery('name', groupName); // Query the group by name
group.query();

if (group.next()) {
    // Access group properties
    gs.info('Group found: ' + group.name);
} else {
    gs.info('Group not found');
}

Replace the Group name with the name of the group you want to retrieve.

If you want to give it with sysid, then try the below code

var groupSysId = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; // Replace with actual Sys_ID
var group = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
if (group.get(groupSysId)) {
    // Access group properties
    gs.info('Group found: ' + group.name);
} else {
    gs.info('Group not found');
}

Replace groupSysId with the actual Sys_ID of the group you want to fetch.

If this solution resolves your query, please accept the solution and mark it as helpful.

Thanks & regards,
