One of the most powerful features in Gorelo is the ability to manage Scripts. Scripts are saved in Gorelo for repeat on demand usage or can be used in other features such as Policy Management. To make Scripts more versatile, Gorelo offers management and use of Custom Fields. Custom Fields are placeholders for dynamic values which can either be predefined in Gorelo or their values can be set at runtime.
