Preview functions

Preview functions are used to check if a job is a preview job or not. If the job is a preview job, a script function can be used to select an appropriate connector for the preview Process.

The table below contains a short description of each script function. For information about syntax, etc., see the full description of each script function.

Function name	Description
IsPreview	Checks if the current job is a preview job or not.
GetPreviewType	Deprecated. Replaced by GetPreviewTypeEx. Note: The scripting function will still work in upgraded Projects, but for new Projects we recommend that you use GetPreviewTypeEx.
GetPreviewTypeEx	Returns a number, indicating whether a job is a preview job or not. If the job is a preview job, the number indicates from where the preview job was invoked.
GetRequestedPreviewContentType	This function is only available for preview calls from web service clients. Returns a string containing an optionally requested content type for a response to a preview request. The returned value can be used to select an appropriate connector for the preview Process.
