Actions
What is an action?
Actions are the operations available for creating and automating, which live inside of a workflow. You grab these actions from the left side menu of the workflow builder, and drag them onto the workflow canvas. When you run a workflow, Rewst is completing a series of actions specified within that workflow. Once an action has been dragged onto the canvas, we refer to that dragged action as a task, to differentiate between a dragged and undragged action.
Once you've set up an integration, Rewst offers you a number of actions related to that integration to build your workflows. They're accessible from the accordion menus in the left side menu of the workflow builder, and sorted based on their respective sources, including integrations by brand, Core, Rewst, Transform, and Workflow. Expand any accordion to see the related actions it contains.

Each action serves a unique purpose and comes with a brief description to aid in understanding its functionality. Click on any action to begin dragging and dropping it onto your workflow builder canvas. For more on our workflow builder and how workflows are essential to Rewst, see our workflow documentation here.

Core actions: These are the essential platform components like webhooks, email dispatching, and noops.
IntegrationsIntegrations actions: When you set up an integration in Rewst, it comes with a predefined set of actions, which will appear in your workflow builder action menu. These actions allow you to work with various parts of the integrated product as per its API. Rewst's integrations pull in the most useful and most commonly used actions, but not all available actions. Each integration's action accordion menu will also contain an action to allow you to pull in additional actions. This action is titled [Integration Name] API Request
. See our individual integration setup pages for more information on available actions.
