Hi @Shubham Rai ,

The answer is "Access controls".

Field Watcher is a debugging tool that allows you to monitor and debug changes to fields on a form in ServiceNow. It is used to debug Business Rules, Script Includes, and Client Scripts. However, Access Controls cannot be debugged using Field Watcher as it is not related to changes to fields on a form. Access controls are used to control the level of access users have to specific records or fields in ServiceNow based on their roles and permissions.

To debug Access Controls, you can use the Debug Security Controls feature in ServiceNow, which is specifically designed for debugging Access Controls.

Hi @Sai Shravan 

could you please refer this doc-https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/tokyo-application-development/page/script/debugging/concept/c_Fie...

Here the line "Type of object that changed the field and its associated name: The type of item that changed on the field; for example, CLIENT SCRIPT, BUSINESS RULE, or ACL. "

clearly mentioned that it can also used for acl i guess

Hi @Shubham Rai ,

The information described in the question pertains to the "Type of change" column in the Field Watcher tool in ServiceNow. This column shows the type of object that changed the field and its associated name.

The "Type of change" column displays the type of item that changed the field, such as CLIENT SCRIPT, BUSINESS RULE, or ACL. For scripts, business rules, or other configuration-type fields, Field Watcher displays the name of the script or business rule that changed the field. By clicking on the name, you can go directly to the record for that item.

In summary, the "Type of change" column in Field Watcher displays the type of object that changed the field and its associated name, allowing developers to quickly identify the source of any changes made to the field.

I think the good answer is

Script Includes
