Can I tell what scope a script is running from?

This post came up in a lot in my searches and had to make adjustments to it to differentiate between whether a script was being run on the Gateway vs a Perspective Session Scope, IE whether Perspective session properties exist. Here is a quick change to the above method that solved it for me.

from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.model import ApplicationScope

class Scope(object):
	@staticmethod
	def get():
		scope = ApplicationScope.getGlobalScope()
		if ApplicationScope.isClient(scope):
			return "c" # vision client
	
		if ApplicationScope.isDesigner(scope):
			return "d" # designer
	
		if ApplicationScope.isGateway(scope):
			try:
				system.perspective.getProjectInfo()
				return "p"
			except:
				return "g"
		return "u" # unknown
