Code Component

Code

Author and run your own code

Component key: code

Description​

The code component allows you to write your own short snippets of JavaScript code, and is handy for writing quick functions or data transformations that are specific to your product or industry. Please see the full article on the code component for information on when a code component is appropriate, and common use cases for a code component.

Code component steps should be succinct and integration-specific. If the code you write could be reused in other integrations, if it needs to handle credentials, or if the code is complex enough that it would benefit from unit tests, etc., you should write a custom component instead.
