Difference between Async BR and Script Action

Hello,

 

Could anyone help me know the difference between Async BR and Script actions.

I understand that both of them are asynchronous and Async BR executes on any record level changes and Script actions executes when event is triggered. But I want to know the difference in terms of use-cases.

 

 

-Thanks.

After BR + event + script action = Aysnc BR

Both will run asynchronously and won't impact the user transaction and user experience
