Designing an action app
You can add an action to your app project, allowing your app to be part of an automation which you can access from Actions.
- Add an action to your app:
- Select Action to add an action to your app, then Continue. The schema editor opens.
The schema contains a Submit outcome and one input property by default. To add additional properties, use the Add property option. To add additional outcomes, select the + symbol in the Outcomes section.
- Select Action to add an action to your app, then Continue. The schema editor opens.
- Map the input property to an input control:
- Select Toolbox, then Input.
- Select the Button control and drag it in your app.
- In the Properties panel, select Events, then in Clicked on, select Define automation.
- Add a Submit Action activity to your app. The outcome property automatically maps to Submit.
- Publish your app:
- Select Publish. The Publish dialog opens.
- Enter a descriptive name for your app, then select Publish.
- Deploy your app:
- Go to Orchestrator, and select Automations.
- Select Apps, then Deploy app.
- Locate the App field in Source overview, then select the app you published in the previous steps, then Deploy.
The action app is deployed, and you can add it to an automation.
