Hello @karan221 Rendering is not enabled in the script as you are able to read variables directly from script, may I know the use case?

If you really want to render it, you could try something like this:

console.log(
    insomnia.collectionVariables.replaceIn(
        insomnia.environment.get('recursive_variable')
    )
);
