CallScript

Use the CallScript component to display a script within a Robotic Automation Studio solution. To use CallScript, insert variables (designated as tokens) in the script and then supply values to the tokens through automation logic. You can display the CallScript where needed, such as a pop-up window on a computer screen or on a separate device, such as a handheld device.

The component has these properties, methods, and events. For more information, see General Component Properties, Methods, and Events.
