There is a 1MB limit on the content size of scripts, whether the content is defined in the Script Details or a uploaded from a local file system (see 17301516 Uploading a Script, below). |
You can use scripts with the following task types: Windows, Linux/Unix, SAP, and File Transfer (UDM scripts for UDM File Transfer tasks).
...
Script | For use in Windows or Linux/Unix tasks. |
|---|---|
SAP Definition | For use in SAP tasks. |
UDM Script | For use in UDM File Transfer tasks. |
Web Service Payload | For use in Web Service tasks. |
Data | For use in a script or task (see 17301516 Data Scripts, below). |
| Anchor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Data Scripts (Script Type = Data) are meant to be used with scripts and commands specified in tasks, and resolved when the script or command is executed. Data Scripts provide the script or command with access to a path on the UAG file system where the temporary Data Script content resides.
...
To use a Data Script with a script, embed the Data Script in any of the following:
- 17301516 Content of a Script specified in the Script field in a Linux/Unix or Windows task.
- 17301516 Content of a Data Script.
- Universal Template Script (Script, Linux/Unix Script, or Windows Script field).
...
| Note | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
Although you can embed a Data Script in the Command field or Parameters field of a Linux/Unix or Windows task, only scripts with Script Type = Script can be referenced in a Linux/Unix or Windows task; that is, it is the only type of script that is available for selection in the Linux/Unix or Windows task Script field. |
...
For every Data Script embedded in a Data Script, the Controller will resolve ${_scriptPath('script_name')} (if 17301516 Resolve UAC Variables is enabled for the Data Script), and look for additional Data Script references (and Resolvable Credentials references). This process will continue until no additional Data Script references are found.
