+To create a logging utility in a ServiceNow Script Include that only logs in non-production environments, you can follow these steps:
+
+
+Create a new Script Include.
+Define a utility class with a logging function.
+Inside the function, get the instance name and use conditional logic to check if it matches the production instance name.
+If the instance is non-production, execute the logging command.
+Call this utility from other server-side scripts.
+
+
+This method centralizes your logging logic, making it easy to manage.
+Step 1: Create the Script Include
+In the main navigation, type Script Includes and select it under System Definition.
+Click New to create a new record.
+Fill out the form with the following details:
+Name: LoggingUtils
+Accessible from: All application scopes (This allows you to call the function from anywhere).
+Client callable: Unchecked (This is a server-side utility).
+
+
+
+
+// Instantiate the Script Include
+var logUtil = new LoggingUtils();
+
+// Use the log() function to log a message
+logUtil.log('Hackertoberfest', 'info');
