Master and custom scripts administration tools

Civic Platform provides the Master Scripts and Custom Script administration tools as part of the Event administration tools. These tools enable you to view available master scripts and to view or edit the custom script.

Note: The custom script, INCLUDES_CUSTOM, is a placeholder master script that contains custom functions. Instead of modifying standard functions provided by Accela, create custom functions and save them in INCLUDES_CUSTOM. At runtime, the master scripts can call the custom functions in INCLUDES_CUSTOM.

To view a master script

  1. From Classic admin, select Events > Master scripts.

  2. In the Master script version list menu, select the master script version you want to view.

    Note: You can upgrade the master script version when you upgrade Civic Platform. Civic Platform makes all versions of the master scripts available at the same time. Agency administrators can set the standard choice MASTER_SCRIPT_DEFAULT_VERSION to continuously apply a specific version of master scripts, regardless of the master script upgrades.

  3. Select Submit to see the list of master scripts provided in the version.

  4. Select the red dot next to the master script you want to view.

To view and edit a custom script

  1. From Classic admin, select Events > Custom script.

    Note: The script name of the custom script is INCLUDES_CUSTOM.

  2. Edit the script code of the custom script in the Master script text field.

    For more information on editing custom script, see Add custom functions to master scripts.
