Hi Support,

Reading the documentation for sc.ServerConnectionState, it says "...When the connection state is disconnected and then the connection becomes connected, the study function will be called. When the connection state is connected and then it is no longer connected, the study function will be called..."

Does that mean if this function is used in the body of the function, it will not be called at every chart update interval? I was under the impression that everything inside the body of
SCSFExport scsf_studyname(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc){###body###}
is called at every chart update interval.

Sorry if dumb question, new to coding.

Yes. It is also variable and not a function.

I see, so sc.ServerConnectionState just returns a variable that's calculated somewhere else within SC, is my understanding correct?

Other code within the body that is not a variable like sc.ServerConnectionState will be run at every chart update interval, is this correct?

Thanks in advance.
