Maybe this a perspective thing, but I'm trying to call a project script from the script console (also tried a button in a view) and get the error below. my function call: `project.test.scriptName()` error: > NameError: name 'project' is not defined How do I call a project script? If you can't in perspective, where should I put things that will be reused in lots of places? ---

Now I’m getting the same thing, but from a gateway script. I’ve copied the exact script that was running on a tag, to a gateway timer event. I have the correct project set under gateway settings for scripts. my gateway script: `client = p1.srmCredentials.getClient()` the error: ```auto ... line 2, in getInfo NameError: global name 'project' is not defined ``` The scripts: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/a/d/adb3c64f413d3ed6912b3693a231bd30f3465035.png) ---

Ah, well my gateway event script was inside of a function. When I took it out of the function and ran it it found the project scripts. ---

Sorry for the thread revival, but after a search this is the closest match I've found so far. I'm trying to debug a script. Vision 8.1.35, but was upgraded from 7.9. I want to call a project script from the script console to test. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/6/26fac63d09b24d1b6aa77e1edef1b9869c32b080.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/c/5ce268864fe03367a7371b2a4f6c66c00e9464ea.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/b/3b4ca168f3c44cde83e0fe7ff566b579a849f96d.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/9/593fef6e020a26c4847d5ae0718411755648cfa1.png) Can I not see the wood for the trees here, it has been a long week... ---

yes, it was at that originally, but then saw this thread and removed it. Let me try it back in because I think I might have had a case sensitivity issue too. ---

Thanks, a step further, it's now failing at line 132 in ISEM\_PG6, but at least it's calling it and telling me where. Have a good weekend!
