Hi Prasanthi,

'gs' is GlideSystem API from ServiceNow. It is a Server side API which means that you can use it in Business Rules, Server Script of Widgets etc. 

The above mentioned method - gs.getErrorMessage() is used to display list of error message  for the session that were rendered by gs.addErrorMessage().

You can see more details here - GlideSystem

Hello Prasanthi,

The scoped GlideSystem (referred to by the variable name 'gs' in any server-side JavaScript) API provides a number of convenient methods to get information about the system, the current logged-in user, etc.

So, you can use it in Server Script like Business Rules, Script Include, etc.

1) gs.getErrorMessage() is used to Returns the list of error messages for the session that were added by addErrorMessage(). 

2) gs.getInfoMessage() is used to Retrieves the list of info messages for the session that were added by addInfoMessage().

For more details you can refer below link: gs.getErrorMessage and gs.getInfoMessage()

I hope this will help you.
