ScriptRunner Enterprise for Visual Studio Code

The ScriptRunner Enterprise for VS Code extension allows you to bring ScriptRunner scripting functions to Visual Studio Code, making it easier for you to edit your PowerShell scripts. You can connect your ScriptRunner script repository directly to Visual Studio Code and edit your PowerShell scripts without having to switch between different applications.

Check out our Coding Guide for detailed information about the ScriptRunner extension for Visual Studio Code.

Extension settings

In the Visual Studio Code settings under File > Preferences > Settings > Extensions > ScriptRunner Enterprise for VS Code, enter the ScriptRunner backend URI to connect to your ScriptRunner host. You can find the required URI in the ScriptRunner Portal by clicking the info button at the top right.

Enable the Install SRXEnv PowerShell Module setting if you want to test ScriptRunner features directly in Visual Studio Code. For more information, refer to our Coding Guide.

Specify the Loopback Server Port that should be used during the login process. This is an optional setting when using OpenID Connect as the authentication method and the port component cannot be ignored to match a redirect URI. In this case, http://localhost:<port> must explicitly added to the list of allowed redirect URIs.

Change the PowerShell Executable Path if the PowerShell executable file is in a different location on your client.

Enable the Skip Certificate Check setting if certificate validation should be skipped.
