Is inc.query(); is necessary to execute a script 

or  can we use any alternatives instead of inc.query();

Hello @Veena18 ,

To fetch single record from any table using GlideRecord and using one field value(ex:sys_id) on record with we can go with rec.get(sys_id) and no need to use rec.query().

To get Multiple records for all the addQuery's in the script of GlideRecord needs .query() to fetch the records from the table.

without query() function the GlideRecord won't query the table and you won't be able to iterate the result

Hi @Veena18,

Query(Example: br.query or inc.query) is a mandatory method while working with GlideRecords.

@Veena18 
query() function in ServiceNow's GlideRecord API is used to retrieve records from tables in the ServiceNow database. It executes the query.
