Description

Some events support return parameters outside of your typical stdout and stderr streams. $EVENT_RETURN allows you to modify those parameters.

Examples

event onPreview example=exec {
    -> set event
    out "Preview event for $(event.Interrupt.PreviewItem)"
    
    $EVENT_RETURN.CacheTTL = 0 # don't cache this response.
}

Detail

$EVENT_RETURN will support different values for different events. Please read the respective event document for details on using this variable.
