Run your own applications alongside your website
Server scripts provide an environment for running your own server-side code alongside a uCoz website. You can use them to build APIs and web applications, Telegram bots, forms that store data, integrations with external services, and automated tasks.
Run PHP files without configuring a separate web server. Code changes become available immediately after saving.
Applications, APIs, bots, and data handlers with dependencies installed from package.json.
Background services, automation, data processing, and AI tools with dependencies from requirements.txt.
Create databases and separate users to store server application data.
Upload files from the Control Panel or through a dedicated FTP account.
Run scripts on a schedule for recurring synchronization, data processing, and other tasks.
Server scripts can retrieve data about the current uCoz website user. This makes it possible to identify who is making a request and build personalized account areas, APIs, integrations, and other scenarios that use website user authorization.
