FirstSpirit scripts
These scripts run in SiteArchitect and in ContentCreator and, among other activities, can make input windows available to the editor. These scripts are therefore suitable for project-specific automation of frequently recurring operations within the editorial process.
Scripts can be started through these user interface components:
- in the global menu
- in the context menu
- in workflow activities
- on datasets
- special script types
Menu script
A menu script can be run from the menu bar in the SiteArchitect.
Menu scripts can be reached in the menu bar under the main menu item Extras, sub-menu item Execute Script.
