Run code

The Run code action allows you to execute a JavaScript script. Most of the operations are allowed to perform complex operations and data transformations in a simple way.

Note: Importing libraries, dealing with files, blobs and proxies, using constructor, fetch or eval and doing HTTP requests is not allowed.

The Run code action can also be used for specific cryptography requirements by using tools from the Forge library. For more details, see Run Code action using Forge cryptography library.
