Use Rule Variables in Scripting Rules

Usage of Rule Variables in Scripting Rules is super easy. All RVs values are stored in theruleVariables object that is exposed in the script. You can use these stored values everywhere in the script (as inputs for your function or as inputs for DR.solve() function...)

Rule Variables supports JavaScript primitive data types only. (number, string, boolean, symbol)

const foo = ruleVariables.foo;
const bar = ruleVariables.bar;

output.Output = `Values of Rule Variables are: ${foo} and ${bar}`;

return output;

What you cant do

You cannot set ruleVariables from script itself or overwrite existing Rule Variable.
