Run Script
Instruct the wizard to execute a script (including parameters as required). Scripts can be written in any of the following languages:
-
VBScript
-
JScript
-
Perl
-
PScript
-
Python
If your script contains special characters, please use a file to run them. If not, the special character will be removed. This is a known limitation.
-
Enter the script code or load it from a file.
-
Specify any parameters for running the script (separated by spaces).
-
Select the language in which the script is written.
-
For Python, you are given the option to specify which version of Python will be used to run the script: the Nintex-installed version or a version installed on the client machine.
-
-
Specify a timeout (i.e., if the script does not begin to run within this time frame, the wizard will move on).
-
Tick this checkbox to use custom character encoding, then select the encoding set you wish to use.
Custom encoding isn't relevant nor supported for Python.
-
Enter the name of the variable into which you'd like to place the returned result.
-
Languages requiring specific code to return a value:
-
VBScript: WScript.StdOut.Write("My return value")
-
JScript: WSH.StdOut.WriteLine("My return value")
-
Python: print([returnvalue])
This field is relevant only for a script that is designed to return a result
