Core actions

Core actions are fundamental Flow actions that enable the processing of data and the execution of tasks.

Core actions are typically focused on data processing and manipulation, and are designed to be flexible and adaptable to a wide range of use cases. They can perform a variety of functions, such as performing calculations, making HTTP requests, filtering and sorting data, and setting variables.

Calculate

This action performs simple arithmetic calculations on numeric values and returns the result.

You can use this action to do things like calculate the total cost of an order based on the quantity and unit price of items.

HTTP Request

This action sends an HTTP request to any specified URL and returns the response.

You can use this action to send data to an external API for processing, or to retrieve information from a third-party service.

Conditional

This action branches out the flow depending on custom conditions defined by the user. The first branch that matches the conditions will be executed.

You can use this action to create different paths in your flow based on certain criteria, such as whether a contact is in a particular group or whether a purchase exceeds a certain amount.

Count Elements

This action counts the number of elements in objects, arrays, and strings and returns the count.

You can use this action to do things like count the number of items in a shopping cart, the number of subscribers on a mailing list.

Date

This action performs date operations such as formatting, conversion, and manipulation.

You can use this action to convert a date into a different format, to calculate the time difference between two dates, or to add or subtract a certain number of days from a date.

Filter Array

This action filters an array based on custom conditions defined by the user and returns the filtered array.

You can use this action to filter out unwanted data from an array.

Format Currency

This action formats a numeric value to display as a currency value according to the specified format.

You can use this action to display prices in a standardized currency format across different regions or to format the output of an invoice.

Format Number

This action formats a numeric value for display according to the specified format.

You can use this action to display numerical data in a standardized format.

Jump

This action redirects the flow to any other action in the same flow.

You can use this action to skip over certain parts of a flow, such as a step that is only relevant for certain contacts, or a step that has already been completed.

Pick Item from Array

This action picks a specific item from an array based on the index or a default value if the index is out of range.

You can use this action to select a specific item from an array, such as a product from a list of recommended items or a contact from a list of subscribers.

Wait for Time Period

This action pauses the flow for a specified amount of time and then resumes.

You can use this action to create delays in your flow, such as waiting a certain amount of time before sending a follow-up email or a feedback survey.

Set Variables

This action defines custom variables that can be used later in the flow to store and manipulate data.

You can use this action to store data for later use in your flow, such as a contact's favorite color, or to create new variables based on existing data.

Sort Array

This action sorts an array according to a specified property and returns the sorted array.

You can use this action to sort an array of data, such as a list of products by price or a list of customers by purchase history.

Terminate

This action terminates a flow, a parallel branch, or a loop iteration depending on the user's selection.

You can use this action to end a flow or a specific branch of a flow.
