It is a conductor, but the filament is a resistor : as current flows through the filament, some of the energy is released as heat and light.

Is a glass bulb a conductor or insulator?
Insulator.
Which is insulator?
A insulator is something that doesn't transfer electricity. As you probably know, metal is a very good conductor (which is the opposite to insulator - it transfers electricity -) so if you imagine a light bulb a battery and wires, and connect them all, and leave a little space for the switch, but don't add it in, just add the metal in the switches place and the bulb will light. But if you add an insulator like wood for example, the bulb wouldn't light up. Wood is an insulator and lots of other things are too. Just to let you know water is a conductor! I didn't believe that myself until I watched a video on youtube about it!

Is a light a insulator or conductor?
Light bulb is itsef composed of many parts like filament wire and external casing of glass. Among which current flowes through the tugasten filament wire which is a 'conductor' of high resistance.
