You can find it in Client Scripts or UI Action Scripts. Basically, if you have to pass any parameter (or data) from client-side code to server-side code, you have to use GlideAjax API to achieve it. You can pass the parameters using the addParam() method of GlideAjax API and fetch it in the Script Includes using this.getParamater() method.

Attaching the reference to get more idea on this:

@Dizy M

this.getParameter() is used when this script include function is being called from GlideAjax from client side code.

sysparm_sysID is name of that parameter and that parameter will hold value which is set using GlideAjax
