Good afternoon! I’m just starting to learn glide, so the question may seem a little simple, but don’t judge me harshly))  
The situation is as follows: in the application, when filling out an application for correct settlements between counterparties, I need the current exchange rate. I have a script that parses the course from third-party sources at startup. How do I run this script in glide?  
It is necessary that the script is run every time you fill out an application. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any detailed information on the Internet. I will be grateful for any useful information.

Where does your script live?

Actually, on my computer. But I can host it anywhere, for example, on a dedicated server. But I would like everything to work through glide. Perhaps it is possible to somehow make the script work in glide through the API?

Do I understand correctly that i can solve this problem using the Call API function?

Yes, quite possibly - if your script can expose an API endpoint.  
Alternatively, you might be able to replicate your script in Glide using the JavaScript column.
