If we use clientScriptModulePath in beforeLoad event in UE script, does that script works in Edit mode?

Yes, so long as your UE sets `clientScriptModulePath` during an EDIT event. Regular Client Scripts always run in EDIT mode as well

Strange. I added a button in beforeLoad event and that button works.
But normal client script entry points like pageInit, fieldChanged didn't work

Hard to help further without seeing the code, but AFAIK, all the Client Script events should still fire when attaching via this method.

Actually that's what I know but somehow it doesn't work.
Thank you

Only suggestion is to double check the module's `return` statement and make sure the entry point handlers are all mapped.

Other entry points won't work. You will need a deployed client script for those entry points to work.

the clientScriptModulePath doesnt actually act as a client script in user event scripts, you dont get access to the entry points of client scripts

its supposed to be used for button functions

or if you just want to run arbitrary code after the script is loaded

clientScriptModulePath works as a normal client script with entry points in a suitelet

What an important piece of documentation they're missing

In SL, I have added a button in inline html field but that does not trigger function in client script. How can I trigger it?
It shows me function is not defined.

You don't need to add the button in inline html field. Use the form.addButton()
