Passing the session object is the only _supported_ way. There _is_ a gross hack you can do, but as mentioned in the thread, don't expect support or be surprised if it breaks suddenly on upgrade.

> In theory, the InternalSession.SESSION [ThreadLocal](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/ThreadLocal.html) would be populated if you’re running a project script from a Perspective thread; so something like this might work: from com.inductiveautomation.perspective.gateway.session import InternalSession session = InternalSession.SESSION.get() if session is not None: system.perspective.print(session.custom.something)
