## API Resources

### processes

  - `list`, List information about processes made by or on behalf of a user, such as process type and current status.
  - `listScriptProcesses`, List information about a script's executed processes, such as process type and current status.

### projects

  - `create`, Creates a new, empty script project with no script files and a base manifest file.
  - `get`, Gets a script project's metadata.
  - `getContent`, Gets the content of the script project, including the code source and metadata for each script file.
  - `getMetrics`, Get metrics data for scripts, such as number of executions and active users.
  - `updateContent`, Updates the content of the specified script project. This content is stored as the HEAD version, and is used when the script is executed as a trigger, in the script editor, in add-on preview mode, or as a web app or Apps Script API in development mode. This clears all the existing files in the project.
  - `deployments`, Operations on the 'deployments' resource
  - `versions`, Operations on the 'versions' resource

### scripts

  - `run`, ## Discovering Commands

Before calling any API method, inspect it:

```bash
# Browse resources and methods
gws script --help

# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults
gws schema script.<resource>.<method>
```

Use `gws schema` output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.
