Hi all,

I need  a small clarification like -  Why the Client-side code should not contain the console.log() debugging method in service now(client scripts )? Please provide the needful solution.

Hi,

it could cause errors in certain browser versions and hence it is advised not to add that

As an alternative do this

Replace console.log() calls with jslog. The benefits of jslog are that you have to open the JavaScript Debugger Window to view the output, it is compatible with all browsers, and can be left in production since only administrators can open the window.
