Sandbox enabled on script include

[pramodkumar]

Hi Everyone,

I see a new checkbox 'sandbox enabled' in script include after upgrading to Xanadu. Can anyone explain what is the use of this checkbox with an example?

Thanks!

The 'sandbox enabled' checkbox in ServiceNow's Xanadu release allows you to run scripts within a secure, restricted environment known as a sandbox. This sandbox limits the script's access to certain APIs and resources, enhancing security by preventing potentially harmful operations.

Example Use Case: Imagine you have a script include that processes user input from a client-side form. By enabling the 'sandbox enabled' checkbox, you ensure that this script runs in a controlled environment, reducing the risk of malicious code execution or unintended access to sensitive data.

No this does not answer the question. Both of the responses point to a url that is for the system property NOT the field on a script include that is called "Sandbox Enabled". I read your response and I don't understand, will setting that field on a specific script include disable the ability to insert or update from that script include?
