There is only one way that you can call script include in client script by using GlideAjax.

Hi @Karthik_Yallam1 ,

There are actually two ways to achieve this:

1. Using GlideAjax: This is the most common approach.

• You create a GlideAjax object, specify the script include name, and call a function on the script include.
• The script include returns a result, which you can then process in the client script.

2. Using the g_form object:

• If the script include is specifically designed to work with forms, you can directly call its functions using the g_form object.
• This method is more efficient and can be used for simple interactions with form-related script includes.

Here's an example of each method:

Using GlideAjax:

var ga = new GlideAjax('MyScriptIncludeName');
ga.addParam('param1', 'value1');
ga.addParam('param2', 'value2');
ga.get();
ga.addCallback(function() {
var result = ga.getAnswer();
// Process the result
});

Using the g_form object:

var result = g_form.callServer('MyScriptIncludeName', 'myFunction', 'param1=value1&param2=value2');
// Process the result

Choosing the right method:

• GlideAjax: Use this method for general-purpose script include calls and when you need to pass parameters or handle asynchronous responses.
• g_form object: Use this method for script includes that are specifically designed to work with forms and when you need to call functions directly from the client script.
