The Watcher function allows users to specify system and script variables, or fields to watch during a script run in order to monitor the values assigned to them in the running of that script session. This function is available in both live and non-live scripts. The watcher function also updates with basic script and campaign information.
 
Available script variables and fields can only be added once the script is running (either in the Script Editor or Agent Desktop):
 
Click on the 'I' button in the bottom left corner:
 
 
 
Select the Data tab.
 
 
Users can opt to add all script variables (including system variables, so use with caution!), or add each one manually.  The Clear All button can be used to remove all variables and fields entered.  Once the user begins typing a word a selection of matching script fields and variables will start to appear:
 
 
Once added to the Watcher list the item name will appear in the list, with it's associated value populated as the script run progresses.
 
 
An example of the script watcher information is shown below (release specific):
 
 
* The Watcher box can be resized by using anchor on the bottom right corner of the dialog box, and the box moved by dragging it using the blue area the right of the data tab, and to the left of the  close button.
* Currently user added variables and script fields added are maintained across script runs. This is done for convenience, but does mean that if a variable or field  is added in ScriptRunA it will still be listed with a blank/empty value in ScriptRunB even if the script that is run in ScriptRunB does not  contain this variable/field.
