How To Use Action Nodes
- Place actions after a trigger or branch decision.
- Map input values from workflow context (for example
trigger.*or prior node outputs). - Validate response shape before dependent downstream logic.
- Add failure handling for operations with external side effects.
Choosing The Right Action
- Use Advanced Actions when orchestrating APIs and cross-workflow behavior.
- Use Data Processing actions to parse, map, validate, and transform payloads.
- Use Communication actions for human-facing notifications.
- Use Network/Security actions for infrastructure tasks and key generation.
- Use Flow Control actions to terminate or route execution intentionally.

Action Design Best Practices
- Keep each action focused on one responsibility.
- Normalize and validate data before branching or calling external systems.
- Treat API responses as contracts and guard against missing fields.
- Use retries and fallback paths for critical notifications and integrations.
