Script Testing Commands

accli test script

Execute a generic/on-demand script in rollback mode (safe testing).

# Basic usage
accli test script Scripts/MyScript.js

# With parameters
accli test script Scripts/MyScript.js --param "recordId=PR2024-001" --param "status=Complete"

# With commit (applies changes to database)
accli test script Scripts/MyScript.js --commit

# Don't save to script library
accli test script Scripts/MyScript.js --no-save

Options:

• --commit - Commit changes instead of rolling back
• --param key=value - Set script parameters (repeatable)
• --no-save - Don't save script to RadishKit library
• --record <id> - Set record context (e.g., "PR2024-001")

Interactive Parameter Mode: When you run without parameters, the CLI will ask:

1. Run without parameters? - Execute the script as-is
2. Use existing parameter set? - Select from saved parameters
3. Create new parameter set? - Enter new parameters interactively

accli test event

Execute an event script (ASA, WTUA, IRSA, etc.).

# ASA (ApplicationSubmitAfter)
accli test event asa Scripts/Event/ASA_Handler.js --record "PR2024-001"

# WTUA (WorkflowTaskUpdateAfter)
accli test event wtua Scripts/Event/WTUA_Handler.js \
  --record "PR2024-001" \
  --task "Review" \
  --status "Complete"

# IRSA (InspectionResultSubmitAfter)
accli test event irsa Scripts/Event/IRSA_Handler.js \
  --record "PR2024-001" \
  --inspection "Electrical"

Event-specific options:

• --record <id> - Required: Record ID (e.g., permit, license number)
• --task <name> - For WTUA: workflow task name
• --status <status> - For WTUA: task status
• --inspection <type> - For IRSA: inspection type

accli test batch

Execute a batch script.

# Basic batch script
accli test batch Scripts/Batch/DailyReport.js

# With parameters
accli test batch Scripts/Batch/DailyReport.js \
  --param "StartDate=2024-01-01" \
  --param "EndDate=2024-01-31" \
  --param "Department=Building"

# With commit
accli test batch Scripts/Batch/DailyReport.js --commit

Options:

• --param key=value - Set batch parameters (repeatable)
• --commit - Commit changes (batch scripts typically need this)

accli test sql

Execute a SQL query file (SELECT queries only).

# Basic query (auto-limited to TOP 1000)
accli test sql queries/MyQuery.sql

# Remove TOP 1000 limit (use with caution)
accli test sql queries/MyQuery.sql --no-limit

Options:

• --no-limit - Remove the automatic TOP 1000 safety limit

Safety Note: SQL queries default to TOP 1000 limit to prevent accidental large data pulls.

Commit Execution Commands

accli run script|event|batch

Shortcut for test --commit. Use for commit executions.

# Run script with commit
accli run script Scripts/MyScript.js

# Run batch script
accli run batch Scripts/Batch/DailyReport.js --param "Date=2024-01-15"

# Run event script
accli run event asa Scripts/Event/ASA_Handler.js --record "PR2024-001"

Warning: run commands commit changes to your database. Always test with accli test first!

Parameter Management

How Parameter Persistence Works

1. When you run a script with --param options, the CLI saves them
2. Next time you run the same script, the CLI:
   • Pre-fills saved parameters
   • Prompts for any missing parameters
   • Lets you override parameters with new --param values

Interactive Parameter Mode

When you run a script without parameters, the CLI will ask:

1. Run without parameters? - Execute the script as-is
2. Use existing parameter set? - Select from saved parameters
3. Create new parameter set? - Enter new parameters interactively

Non-Interactive Mode

For automation and scripting, use the --param flag:

accli test script Scripts/MyScript.js \
  --param "recordId=PR2024-001" \
  --param "status=Complete" \
  --param "department=Building"

Example Workflow

First execution:

accli test batch Scripts/Batch/Report.js \
  --param "StartDate=2024-01-01" \
  --param "EndDate=2024-01-31"

Parameters are saved. Next execution:

# CLI remembers previous parameters
accli test batch Scripts/Batch/Report.js

# Or override specific parameters
accli test batch Scripts/Batch/Report.js --param "EndDate=2024-02-29"

Viewing Saved Parameters

Saved parameters are stored in:

.accela-cli/saved-params/<script-name>.json

Getting Help

Command Help

# Get help for a specific command
accli <command> --help

# Get help for all commands
accli --help

Common Issues

Authentication errors:

• Run accli logout then accli login
• Check your email and password
• Verify your RadishKit account is active

Connection issues:

• Run accli status to check your setup
• Verify your environment is properly configured
• Check that the wrapper script is installed in Accela

Script execution errors:

• Ensure the wrapper script is installed in Accela
• Check that the script name is exactly RADISH_ACCELA_CLI
• Verify your Accela user has script execution permissions
