Hi, 

 

A JavaScript service can be configured as sync or Async  during design time .    but is it possible to decide it during runtime ? that is , calling javascript service sync or async by passing into a indicator parameter .  

 

Regards,

Sean

    Nope.

    Do note that even if you use the async in the platform, you need to trust 100% your code will finish execution, because otherwise you might slowly end up with n async threads that kill your system.

    That's one of the issues that are not visible that much when you use async: they spawn completely new threads which don't end up in a queue and are not controlled by any subsystem.

    Hi @seanccc ,

     

    have you ever figured out? I also would like to call a Service asynchronously which is not marked as such.

     

    Thank you
    Benny
