Hi,

points below

1. what is gs.info()? -it is used for logging messages to system logs
2. When to use gs.info()? - it is widely used to debug the server side script in ServiceNow and mostly added to check script ran till which point
3. when not to use gs.info()? - it should not be used in production instance; adding gs.info() for debugging is fine but remember to remove that before moving to production as it might lead to unnecessary system logs in production instance
4. Why we should use gs.info()? - same as point 2
5. Best practice of coding gs.info()? - refer below link
