Impress them more by telling them this:

This API has been deprecated, use the GlideModalV3 API instead.

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/api/utah/client/c_GlideDialogWindowAPI

The GlideDialogWindow API provides methods for displaying a dialog in the current window and frame.

Use these methods in scripts anywhere that you can use a client-side JavaScript. These methods are most often called from a UI action with the Client check box selected.

But if you must use it: 

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/api/utah/client/c_GlideDialogWindowAPI#r_GDW-Gli...

This will also get you some interview bonus points:

At the moment ServiceNow do not provide a single method for Modal Popups across Portal, classic forms and Workspaces. The use of Alert,Confirm and prompt should be avoided. sp_modal does not work anyplace other than Portal, GlideModal does not work on either Portal or WorkSpaces. g_modal works on Workspaces but not classic forms or Portal. Solution, use g_modal for Workspaces.

Hi @SandeepKSingh 

Follow the Article :- https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/xanadu-api-reference/page/app-store/dev_portal/API_reference/Glid...

// Creates a dialog window
var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list');

// Creates a read-only dialog window
var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', true);

// Creates a dialog window that is 400 pixels wide
var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', false, 400);

// Creates a dialog window that is 400 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall
var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', false, 400, 200);

Below is the explanation from now_Assist.

The code block demonstrates the creation of dialog windows using the GlideDialogWindow class.

1. var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list'); - This line creates a standard dialog window with the identifier 'show_list'.

2. var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', true); - This line creates a read-only dialog window, preventing user modifications.

3. var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', false, 400); - This line creates a dialog window with a width of 400 pixels, allowing user interactions.

4. var gdw = new GlideDialogWindow('show_list', false, 400, 200); - This line creates a dialog window that is 400 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall, also allowing user interactions.
