The Custom Action Use Cases section of the documentation includes this:

Development

- Create database records (MongoDB, SQL Server, Google BigQuery)

- Run some code (JavaScript, AWS Lamba function, etc)

- Track Issues (Github)

But there is no information re: how to include custom javascript, whether there are limits on this, etc.

Can an Adalo team member give more information?  
This is very important for my needs.

I’d be interested in that too 🙂

This is not my speciality 🙂 I will ask someone else from the team to respond to this as they will most likely know more 🙂

This is a good question and you would need to call an API to make this happen or by calling a webhook. Typically you would need your own server to do this, but some automation services like Integromat, n8n, and possibly Tray (help?) now allow you to run Javascript within modules or nodes.
