Access custom code contextual information

When a placement executes custom code as an experience or a trigger executes a Custom Code action, you can access the payload object containing contextual information related to the event that triggered the code execution. This payload allows you to employ relevant data to customize the user experience, enhance analytics, and perform other functions based on the event details.
