I would also really like to kmnw

Hello,

Yes, it is possible. You can create a NodeJS module and then copy the JS code to the syracuse folder that stores the modules. It is way faster than java bridge for 3rd party interactions.

Check this link for an example:

Examples of things you can do with JS in a faster way than 4GL:
-Download/Upload through SFTP
-Parse excel files
-Parse RTF text

Do note that NodeJS (Syracuse) is single threaded so try not to use it for complex jobs while there are many users online. Also U9 does not support EXEC_JS in batch tasks, if I am not mistaken (at least last year it did not, but may depend on your syracuse version). 

Suggestion 1: force your module to be cleared from the cache on every execution until your module is stable or you have to restart the node service (syracuse) everytime you want new code to be considered which will logout every user.

Suggestion 2: Use streamline
