Breakpoints and Logpoints

A small recap for if you are unfamiliar with Breakpoints and Logpoints. There's some good reading about both on the Docs: Set or remove breakpoints and Set or remove logpoints. Also recently I've written an article about the Logpoints functionality which got added in the Orlando release: Forget about adding log statements to Server Side script, use logpoints! [Orlando].

Tables

Because it didn't seem session related, I thought might Breakpoints and Logpoints actually be stored on the database? A quick search on the tables gave me:

"sys_js_breakpoint" and "sys_js_logpoint"

So these though tables hold all Breakpoints and Logpoints set in your instance! So what can you do with this?! Well this is just a short article finding out some unfamiliar territory in ServiceNow and how some things have been set up . Though what you can do with this is up to your imagination. For example:

- Instantly removing all Breakpoints / Logpoints;- When cloning instances, cleaning-up Breakpoints / Logpoints;- Change a line number quicker for a Breakpoint or Logpoint set;- Change Breakpoint conditions quicker;- Keep Breakpoints though only remove the condition;

- Etcetera.

So what you can do with this is up to your imagination!
