Hello expert,

Evaluator.evaluateString() problem: com.glide.script.fencing.MethodNotAllowedException: Function setUseEngines is not allowed in scope xx

Is there any replacement for this or any suggestions?

Hi,

In scoped Application you need to use GlideScopedEvaluator().

Hi Meenal,

Could you please give a try by cresting a script include in global scope and try to invoke the script as mentioned in the below HI link.

Some globally scoped methods are not allowed in application scopes for security reasons.

Can you explain what you are trying to achieve so we can suggest an alternative API?

Creating a Global script include that becomes a dependency on your scoped application as suggested by @Alok Das can be considered a workaround, but I would advise caution. I would see this as a bad design choice as it somewhat defeats the purpose of developing in application scope and in my view should only be undertaken as a last resort.

Hi paul,

Thanks for the reply.

setUseEngines function used to ignore data policy updates.

Can you suggest some other API for this?

Thanks and Regards,
