hello in today's video i'll be walking you through how to check if a username and password is valid using a background script at the end of today's video you will you will have a better understanding on how to check a username if a username and password is valid using background script so to start off uh as you can see it is a pretty basic script that we have so wherein i have passed the variable username and username i have given the username as able.dude already favorite able.tutor right and this in the second line i have given in the password as servicenow1 right password of the user that you want to check and in the third line i have called in a glide user api client user dot authenticate i have wherein i'm passing the username and password in the fourth line i am printing the result that we the result that is returned from the call that happens uh it can be either true or false so true is for successful login or correct password false is for unsuccessful login or incorrect password so uh yeah that's probably pretty much what the script is then i'll start off with executing the script once so right now the user name is able.tutor and the password is servicenow1 so if i do a run script on this one it goes ahead saying login failed username email and you know and it also returns a false so which means that this in username and password is not valid now just to show the other way about it so i will change the password to the actual password of the user so a build.tutor the password is servicenow i will remove the one uh from servicenow and now i will execute the script once again all good so it returns me with a true so which means the username and password is valid so that's about it uh so this is how we can check if a username and password is valid valid in servicenow using a background script so thanks for watching hopefully this video was information informative for you and thank you
