U.INVOKE_ASYNC

Summary

Asynchronously calls a function created using U.COMPILE

Syntax

=U.INVOKE_ASYNC(function_name, [arg_config], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg], [arg])

Parameters

Parameter Required Description
function_name Yes The name of the compiled function to call asynchronously
[arg] / [config] No The first argument to pass to the function or config details on how to perform the invocation
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function (or first argument if config provided)
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function
[arg] No The next argument to pass to the function

Behavior

The documented public interface is supported by the current U Add-in source signature and the maintained Usage Examples workbook. Optional parameters are shown in square brackets in the syntax above; omit the brackets when entering a formula.

Return Value

Returns the function result or action status described by the formula and parameters above. The maintained sources do not define a narrower, stable return contract for this function.

Examples

=U.INVOKE_ASYNC(C215)

=U.INVOKE_ASYNC(C250)

Notes

  • Formula examples are preserved from maintained workbook usage and normalized to the current U. prefix.
  • Complete formulas demonstrate working patterns; they do not imply that undocumented option values are supported.
  • Where maintained sources do not specify every accepted value, default, or error message, this page does not infer one.
  • For functions that perform actions, use a visible trigger or supported block/throttle parameter to avoid unintended repetition during recalculation.
