Scripted rests API is otherwise known as SCRAPIs, Are very versatile and can do almost anything you need to within ServiceNow from an API perspectivethe only thing is that I found that I can't do with scripted REST APIs are generating files to be downloadedand sometimes handling headers in a very specific way.

In those situations you'll have to look at the predecessors descriptive REST APIs which I would say are processors. Processors have sent have been sent deprecated but you can still create them and use them they're just not nearly as common.
