You can create a pastebin using their APIs, set the source of the script to the raw text of the link, and then delete the paste.

No, use an API to create a paste with all the text you want to put in the script, not get a pre existing one.

To change the source of a script is only possible when using plugins. Here's an example.

local NewScript = Instance.new("Script",workspace)
NewScript.Source = [[
	print("This is my script!")
]] --changing the source
print(NewScript.Source) --printing the source (getting the source)

Please accept my answer if this helped!
