AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To return a value from a Suitelet that is called by another script, you can use the
context.response.write
method in the Suitelet to send the required data. On the client side, you can use the
https.get
method to call the Suitelet and then access the returned data from the
response.body
property. Here is a simplified example: In your Suitelet:
Copy code
javascript
function onRequest(context) {
    // ... your logic here ...
    context.response.write(yourData);
}
In your client script:
Copy code
javascript
var response = https.get({
    url: suiteletUrl
});
var returnedData = response.body;
Please note that the
https.get
method is asynchronous, meaning it doesn't block the execution of the rest of your script while it waits for the Suitelet to respond. If you need to use the returned data in subsequent parts of your script, you should place that code inside a callback or promise resolution function. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
