Action apps
An action app is a type of app designed in UiPath Apps, whereby users can create forms or UI interactions, with specific options for tasks requiring human intervention (Action Center tasks), such as approvals. The input and output properties of the action app are defined by adding an action property.
An action property allows you to design and define the specifics of an Action app. Adding an action control allows you to define the input and output fields on the Action app.
Action properties cover the following categories:
- Input properties: Define the data that the users need to provide to execute an action app.
- Output properties: Define the result data from a performed Action app.
- Input/Output properties: Certain properties could be input and output.
Action definitions allow different types of data in the input and output fields, such as:
- Date
- Decimal Number
- Text/String
- Yes/No answer (Boolean)
- Whole Number
You can also mark these properties as Mandatory, making it mandatory for users to enter a value before proceeding.
When creating or modifying an app in UiPath App Studio, you have the option to add and configure actions. It is during this process that you can configure parameters of an action using action definitions.
To learn more on how to add an action and configuring action definitions, check Adding an action to your app in the Apps guide.
