Hello @Ketan Pandey ,

You will find authentication tab in rest messages not in scripted rest api's.
In scripted rest api's you need to send the authentication details in your script only.

Please mark it as correct/helpful if this helps you.

You can use following scirpt to involve Oauth in the Method (GET, POST, etc.) and the Relative Path.

var accessToken = request.headers['Authorization'];

var oauth2Client = new OAuth2Client();

var tokenValidation = oauth2Client.validateAccessToken(accessToken);

var result = {

message: 'OAuth token is valid!',

data: 'Your secured data goes here'

};

response.setStatus(200);

response.setBody(result);

Hello @Ketan Pandey ,

Sample script below:

(function getOAuthToken() {
var clientId = 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID';
var clientSecret = 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET';
var tokenUrl = 'https://YOUR_INSTANCE.service-now.com/oauth_token.do';

var requestBody = 'grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=' + clientId + '&client_secret=' + clientSecret;
var request = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2();
request.setHttpMethod('POST');
request.setEndpoint(tokenUrl);
request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
request.setRequestBody(requestBody);

var response = request.execute();
return JSON.parse(response.getBody());
})();

• Replace YOUR_CLIENT_ID and YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET with your actual OAuth client ID and secret.

• Replace YOUR_INSTANCE with your ServiceNow instance name.

• Replace YOUR_TABLE with the table you want to access.
  
  
  
  Please Mark it as correct if this resolves your issue.
