Web API for Scripts

Scripts API is used to start and stop script runs and get the current or last completed script run log.

Note that the Workspace Elements API supports also scripts.

Script Entity

The scripts API is based on the script entity, which has the following properties:

• Id (integer): Script id.
• ProjectId (integer): project id. Empty if script belongs to system level.
• Name (string): Script name.
• Description (string): Script description.
• Code (string): Script code.
• Language (string): Scripting language, either Expression or SQL.

Methods

The scripts API has the following methods.

Start script run

POST api/scripts/run/{scriptId}

Starts to run script with given id. Returns id of the started script run operation. Returns immediately without waiting for a script run to be finished. Returns 0 if the script is already running. Requires the global RunScript permission. Returns NotFound if a script does not exist, or Forbidden if current user has no access to the script.

End script run

POST api/scripts/end/{scriptId}

Terminates run of script with given id. Returns id of the terminated script run operation. Returns immediately without waiting for a script run to be aborted. Returns 0 if the script is not running. Requires the global RunScript permission. Returns NotFound if a script does not exist, or Forbidden if current user has no access to the script.

Get current run log

GET api/scripts/runlog/current/{scriptId}?startFromPosition=<number>

Gets the current run log for script with given id, i.e. a run that is currently in progress. Returns an object with the following fields: log, additionalData, operationId. Returns null if the script is not running. Requires the global RunScript permission. Returns NotFound if a script does not exist, or Forbidden if current user has no access to the script.

There is an optional parameter startFromPosition which skips the beginning of the log and returns the tail of the log starting from that defined position as number of characters. This parameter is useful to get the tail of the log, for example when the start of the log has already been fetched earlier. Position zero is the start of the log.

Get last run log

GET api/scripts/runlog/last/{scriptId}

Gets the last completed run log for script with given id. Returns an object with the following fields: log, additionalData, operationId. Returns null if the script is has never been run yet. Requires the global RunScript permission. Returns NotFound if a script does not exist, or Forbidden if current user has no access to the script.
