    About this task

    Note:
    This feature is deprecated. While legacy, existing custom processors continue to be supported, creating new custom processors has been deprecated. Instead, use the Scripted REST APIs.

      Script 
      var name= g_request.getParameter("name");
g_processor.writeOutput("text/plain","Hello "+name);
    4. Click Submit.
    5. Enter a URL query to the instance with the following format: https://instance.service-now.com/processor_name.do?parameter=value
