+### Variable scoping 
+
+When declaring settings variables, make sure to declare them in the function handler rather than globally in your Function. This prevents you leaking the settings values across other function instances. 
+
+The handler for Insert functions is event-specific, for example, `onTrack()`, `onIdentify()`, etc.

 ### Errors and error handling
 
 Segment considers a function's execution successful if it finishes without error. You can `throw` an error to create a failure on purpose. Use these errors to validate event data before processing it to ensure the function works as expected.
