## /config/script/<name>/sourceFile

Use

Use to specify JavaScript source for the script. Call a file that contains the
script. Recommended for longer scripts of about 20 or more lines.

### Parameters

name: Name of script object

### Data Key

The data key contains the following:

Path to the script file, which can be absolute (for example,
"/home/linerate/data/scripting/proxy/myscript.js") or relative to the
scripting home directory /home/linerate/data/scripting (for example,
"proxy/myscript.js"). Protect path name with quotes.

Note: When the default key is set to true, it means the object is set to its
default. In this case, the system works as follows:

  * On a PUT operation, the system ignores the data key. (Applicable only to /config nodes.)
  * On a GET operation, the response only contains "default": True and does not contain the data key.
  * If the object has a base, it inherits its setting from its base.

See [Setting Objects to Their Default](https://docs.lineratesystems.com/093Rel

nderstanding_the_REST_Hierarchy#Setting_Objects_to_Their_Default_(Default_Key)
).

#### Data Type

string

#### Default Data Value

""

An object uses the default data value when one of the following is true:

  * For objects without bases--When the object's default key is true.
  * For objects with bases--When the object's default key is true, and when the default key is true for all of the object's bases.

### Default Allowed

True

### Request Methods

GET, PUT
