Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Summary

I'd like to decrypt a credential using an AWS SDK - is it possible to import libraries as a pre-request script before applying at as an environment variable?

Pre-request script as follows

const awsCrypto = require('@aws-crypto/client-node');
const sp = require('synchronized-promise');

const awsDecrypt = sp(awsCrypto.decrypt);

After Hoppscotch tab is closed, all environment variables from that session should be deleted

Why should this be worked on?

Useful for scenarios where we don't want to have credentials saved in environment but just want them to last for the life of the API testing session.
