Script Field Type

[samratg]

Hi , I can see we have 2 type for a script field -  script and script(plain).
what is difference between script and script(plain). 

If I open Client Script and go to configure dictionary in Script field, then type is - Script(plain) but when we go to Business Rule and do configure dictionary in Script field, then script field is - Script. 
Client Script

Business Rule 

Is there any major difference or we can use any we want?

Hi @samratg,

Refer below link - 
https://www.servicenow.com/docs/bundle/xanadu-platform-administration/page/administer/reference-page...

Script - Text field that accepts JavaScript code input and provides controls, such as syntax checking and formatting. It also provides a list of fields and server APIs. You must specify a dependent field that references the table name for the list of fields.

Script (Plain) - Text field that accepts JavaScript code input and provides controls, such as syntax checking and formatting.
