The ScriptLoader API provides methods to load scripts asynchronously.

You can use this API in client-side scripts for a platform/desktop UI using ListV2 and ListV3 APIs. It isn't available for Service Portal, Mobile, or Agent Workspace.

You access ScriptLoader methods by using the global object `ScriptLoader`.
