# Script block

The "Script" block allows you to execute Javascript code.

<Info>This block doesn't allow you to create a custom visual block</Info>

<Info>
  Variables in script are not parsed, they are evaluated. So it should be treated as if it were real javascript variables.

  You need to write `console.log({{My variable}})` instead of `console.log("{{My variable}}")`
</Info>

## `setVariable` function

If you want to set a variable value with Javascript, the [Set variable block](./set-variable) is more appropriate for most cases.

However, if you'd like to set variables with the script blocks, you can use the `setVariable` function in your script:

```js
if({{My variable}} === 'foo') {
  setVariable('My variable', 'bar')
} else {
  setVariable('My variable', 'other')
}
```

The `setVariable` function is only available in script executed on the server, so it won't work if the `Execute on client?` is checked.

## Examples

### Reload page

```js
window.location.reload()
```

### Redirect if a variable has a specific value

```js
if({{Category}} === 'qualified') {
  window.location.href = 'https://my-site.com'
}
```
