How to run something once on every start of runner

[nopelcs]

You can use this little LS to collect usage data etc. It will run your defined block/blocks once per runners start. Than skip it until you stop and restart. Enjoy!

IF "<REGISTER>" Exists
JUMP #START
ENDIF
SET GVAR "REGISTER" "OK"
##Put block/script here that you want to run only once on checking started
##Rename your first block to START so it can jump to configs real start

#START FUNCTION Constant ##Real configs start

Hello,
looks like this trick is not working anymore ? i have a 100% working config, but when i do this it goes in full retry so i guess it Jumps all the time and it never execute the piece of code before the #start...
Can you please confirm it's still the correct way to create a variable that all bots will use ? in order to not doing it each time in all bots ?

Here is what i'm doing

IF "<Token>" Exists
JUMP #Go
ENDIF
SET NEWGVAR "Token" ""
BEGIN SCRIPT JavaScript
var a = 'abcdef';
var b = 'AhpMNPkSzAOmt0MZWqkS1AZ1da0RVdpX'; 
Token = a + b;
END SCRIPT -> VARS "Token"
SET GVAR "Token" "<Token>"

#Token FUNCTION Hash SHA1 "<Token>" -> VAR "Token" 

#Go REQUEST POST "https://www.mysite.com"

i tried, with and without NEWGVAR, same problem.... it goes in full retry.

You should not name Token both the local and the global variables, it might mess things up.
