Hi,  
I need to invoke a Python function with parameters asynchronously : any idea other then global variables? As far as I can see, the invokeAsynchronous function does not accept any parameters.  
Thank you in advance,  
regards

You should be able to use the partial method from functools; see this thread: [inductiveautomation.com/forum/v … d59#p35367](https://inductiveautomation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=35367&sid=8cf267a26ed268f337b5ae8b65361d59#p35367)
