Hi @Bhujangi Gawali 

The GlideRecord class is the way to interact with the ServiceNow database from a script.

You can do the below database operations using GlideRecord()

1.) Insert

2.) Update

3.) Delete

4.) Retrieval 

Below is the example of retrieving the record information 

For reference - https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/learn/learning-plans/quebec/new_to_servicenow/app_store_le...

// 1. Create an object to store rows from a table
var myObj = new GlideRecord('incident');

// 2. Build query
myObj.addQuery('active', true);

// 3. Execute query 
myObj.query();

// 4. Process returned records
while(myObj.next()){
  //Logic you want to execute.  
  //Use myObj.field_name to reference record fields
}
