Managing Scripts

Script Manager

Scripts are tied to specific contexts, and the Script Manager dialog lists all the scripts accessible to the user according to the context selections defined by the Context, Selected User, Selected Project, and Selected Model drop-down menus.

By default, the following information is displayed for each script:

• Context Type: the context to which the script is tied.
• Name: the name of the script.
• Group: the name of the script group.
• Tags: the tags added to the script.
• Created On: the date and time when the script was created.
• Created By: the user who created the script.
• Last Modified On: the date and time when the script was last modified.
• Last Modified By: the user who last modified the script.
• Help: link to the defined help page for the script.

In addition, the following columns are hidden by default:

• Id: the id of the script in the database.
• Model Id: the id of the model to which the script is linked.
• Model Name: the name of the model to which the script is linked.
• Project Id: the id of the project to which the script is linked.
• Project Name: the name of the project to which the script is linked.
