Script Studio Pro guide

Interface Tour

Script Studio Pro is coming soon. This is preview documentation; details may change before release.

Script Studio Pro is organised around a main workspace, Settings, Console, Script Runner, and optional simulation views.

Login Screen

The login screen connects Script Studio Pro to a management server. It includes:

  • Management server URL.
  • Client ID.
  • Client Secret.
  • Saved service picker when saved services exist.
  • Connection status.

Use a dedicated API client or service account approved by your organisation. Do not use personal administrator credentials unless your internal policy explicitly allows it.

Main Workspace

After connecting, the main workspace shows:

  • Header with connection status, script count, connected host, Console, Script Runner, and Disconnect actions.
  • Script list with search, refresh, and bulk selection.
  • Script editor with helper tools, find, copy, insert header, category, rename, save, export, duplicate, and revert.
  • Linked Policies panel for the selected script.
  • Deployment Actions panel for policy and deployment workflows.

Script List

The script list shows the script name, category, and unsaved status. Use search to filter the list.

Bulk selection mode allows multiple visible scripts to be selected for export or deletion.

Script Editor

The editor shows the selected script contents. It includes:

  • Bash language badge.
  • Script ID.
