Variables available to scripts in custom endpoints

All custom endpoint scripts have a request variable in their scope, which is a JSON object containing all information about the request. The parameters found in this object vary depending on the request method. The request may include headers, credentials, and the desired action. The request normally also includes the endpoint as well as the payload to be processed.

For more details about writing custom endpoint scripts, refer to Custom Endpoint Scripts.
