Call formulas using server side scripts

Formulas can be called from server side scripts using the following method:

Copy 
/**
 * Call formula by name
 * @param formulaName is the name of the formula
 * @param input is the input that must be provided in order to compute the formula
 * @param options are the formula runtime options of type IFtosRunFormulaOption. A property that can be set here is referenceDate if you need to call a past version of the formula
 * @return the object with the calculated values
*/
server.formulas.runFormula(formulaName: string, input: any, options: any): any

 

Copy 
var input = {
    age: 20,
    region: "test" 
}
server.formulas.runFormula("formulaName", input, {});
