Are script actions server side or client side?

• A. Server side
• B. Client side
• C. Both
• D. Not supported

Answer: (A)

Script actions run in the server-side execution context. They’re used to perform operations that involve accessing and updating data, enforcing business rules, or calling server resources, which require the server’s privileges and Glide APIs. Client-side code, by contrast, runs in the user’s browser and handles UI interactions, form validation, and immediate responses, but cannot safely perform direct database operations or server calls in the same way. Since script actions are about executing logic that typically touches data on the server, the server side is the correct place for them.
