Help Tab
Look up supported scripting methods and Lua guidance while editing an automation.
Help is the scripting reference inside Design Automation, alongside My Automations and Editor. It provides an API reference and Lua guide. The method documentation describes supported operations; it does not grant access to features outside your account or active editor.
Open the reference
Choose Design Automation → Help. Choose Open API reference to open the reference dialog, with API reference, Lua guide and Developer guide sections. A Lua guide is also shown directly in Help.
Search for a method
Use Search API reference to narrow the namespace and method list. Read the method’s input types, result and limitations before using it. Drawing and focused-editor methods are not interchangeable.
Use an example
Where available, use Insert into script to bring an example into the active automation. Replace example IDs and values with ones appropriate to your project and inspect what it will change before running.
Preview and verify
Return to Editor, set the required parameters and use Preview or Run. Read output and errors. An example showing an API pattern is not a guarantee that the same inputs fit every selected object.
