Adding an action to your app

The App creator role allows you to create and edit action apps.
To see the list of action apps in UiPath^® Apps Studio, you must be the Co-author for the desired app.

Add an action to your app and deploy it to Orchestrator as follows:

Go to the Apps homepage and select the app where you want to add an action.
Select Add any from the dropdown arrow next to Add control, and select Action.

Note:
You can only add one action per app.
A disclaimer notifies you that once you deploy the app, you must access it via Action Center. Select Continue. The Action Properties schema window opens automatically.
To add an additional property of any type, select any Add property option. To add an additional outcome, select the plus symbol below the Outcomes section.
Note:
- The schema contains one Submit outcome by default and one input property by default.
- You can edit the property name, change the property data type or make a property required. Complex data types, like objects, also support sub-properties.
You must map inputs and in/out properties to input controls in your app. If your app does not already contain an input control, add one now by selecting Add control.
Note:
- If an input or an in/out property is required, it should be mapped to an input control.
- Outcomes should be mapped to a Submit Action rule.
Add a button by selecting, then dragging it into your app.
Select the button to highlight it.
In the Designer panel, select Events.
Select Create rule. The rule configuration window opens.
Type Submit action into the search field, then select the Submit action rule.
In the Action outcome dropdown, select the outcome you wish to map to the Click event of the button, such as Submit.
Once you finished editing your app, select Publish. The What's next window opens automatically.
Select Deploy now. A new Orchestrator page opens automatically.

Note:
If you have multiple folders in your tenant, you can select the folder you want to deploy the app to.
In Orchestrator, select Automations.
Select Apps.
Select the Deploy app button, then select your app to deploy your app.

The app is deployed to Orchestrator and ready to be used in your automations.
