What is scripting?

Scripting, within Cyclr, is writing JavaScript code to manipulate methods and Connectors in more complex ways than the interface usually allows.

Where do we use scripting?

Scripting for Custom Connectors is mostly done in the Script tab, either at Connector level or Method level. Any script written at Connector level is available to every method, similar to Connector level parameters.

You can also add script to steps when you are building your Cycles.

Script Method Type

You may remember the the Script Method Type from earlier. This can be used for methods that do not make an external API call (e.g. static data), or where the request will need to be handled entirely by the script engine.
