Hi,

I’m new to Corteza and javascript. I’m try to execute an external Python or bash script existing on my server after create a new record, but how can I pass the field value of record to the scripts and attach the resulting file to the record? I have read the documentation and found workflow can solve it, but I have no idea for it? Can you help me?

well, you need to overengineer it!

Hi Munawir,

I don’t know how to execute the scripts as child process, can you show me some snippets or snapshots? Any help will be really appreciated. :pray:

you’ll create a server-script(in coredor) that runs python as child process

Basically what @munawir said.
As far as our automation goes, you have automation scripts (JavaScript) and workflows (visual drag & drop builder).

If you’re set on using Python/bash scripts, you’ll need to invoke it from a server-side automation script. At some point we’ll consider supporting different languages but for now you can either overengineer it or move the code to JavaScript.
