I just updated Homey to the latest firmware. I came from version 4.2.0. Nearly everything works as expected.  
Only calling a script with params from another script does not work anymore. In the target script the args contains the params from the call but now this is a empty list. When calling a script from a flow everything works correctly.

the syntax i used to use:

Homey.apps.getApp({id:‘com.athom.homeyscript’}).then(homeyScript =\> {  
homeyScript.apiPost(‘script/{script\_name}/run’, [param]);  
})

Does anyone know if something has changed with this respect?

OK, found the solution by looking into api.js on github. The arguments for calling a script from another script needs now to be in the form **{args: [args]}**

The example on github for calling another scripts is wrong. Thats the old methode. Athom needs to change that
