What is the difference between gs.log() and gs.print()?

[antonymirza]

I have a confusion when to use what i.e. gs.log() or gs.print() as both [gs.log() and gs.print()] writes to system log file.

Anybody please explain the difference...

Could you please let me know which is System log and which is application log, Log file and where to find in the nav bar??

gs.log takes 2 arguments, level and message.

GSLog - ServiceNow Wiki

gs.print takes 1 argument, message.

GlideSystem - ServiceNow Wiki

gs.log is more robust but both are highly redundant.

Thanks Antony Mirza for asking this valuable question.

Hi justin.drysdale

i got your points like

gs.log("hi","how are you") have 2 parameter (traceProperty,caller)

gs.log("let","me know"); writes a message to system log and syslog table.

gs.print("hello"); have 1 parameter (message)

gs.print("welcome"); writes a message to system log only

is that correct??? are anything else i have to know about this

I want little more clarification about gs.log() with clear definition with example

Hello Antony,

eric.szonyi is right, gs.print() will only print in the application log (Tomcat log file) while gs.log() will print in both application log and syslog table (System Logs).
