how do I use the https.requestRestlet.promise function and please do not reference the awful official documentation.

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ****** The

https.requestRestlet.promise

function is not directly available in SuiteScript. However, you can use Promises in SuiteScript 2.1 and above, and you can use the

<http://https.post|https.post>

or

https.get

methods in combination with Promises to achieve similar functionality. Here's a basic example of how you might use Promises with the

<http://https.post|https.post>

method:

javascript
var myPromise = function() {
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
        var response = <http://https.post|https.post>({
            url: '<https://myurl.com>',
            body: 'mybody',
            headers: 'myheaders'
        });
        if (response) {
            resolve(response);
        } else {
            reject(Error("It broke"));
        }
    });
}

myPromise().then(function(result) {
    console.log(result); // "Stuff worked!"
}, function(err) {
    console.log(err); // Error: "It broke"
});

In this example,

myPromise

is a function that returns a new Promise. The Promise constructor takes a function as an argument, which itself takes two functions as arguments:

resolve

and

reject

. If the

<http://https.post|https.post>

method is successful, the

resolve

function is called, and the Promise is fulfilled with the value of the response. If the

<http://https.post|https.post>

method fails, the

reject

function is called, and the Promise is rejected with an Error object. Please note that error handling with Promises can be tricky, as unhandled rejections are silently ignored. It's recommended to always include a

.catch

block when using Promises to handle any potential errors. Also, keep in mind that using Promises can make your code more complex and harder to debug, so they should be used judiciously and only when necessary.
