Effects
- Action class
None: no approval rule names it, so it runs within its seat’s Permissions and Limits
- Modes
try: Runs every check and returns the record as it would be; nothing is stored.send: Returns a pending Action at once;Form.updatedfires when it is done.do: Waits for the Action to finish and returns the record.
- Idempotency
Only with a key: the same
Idempotency-Keyand input return the first Action, and the same key with other input returns409.- Saved or shared
The Form is saved as the call leaves it, with the Action that changed it.
- Emits
Form.updatedwith{ form }- Performed by
Whichever seat calls it
- Price
Free on your own account: the platform charges nothing for the call.
On each Venue
It acts on your own records and reaches no Venue, so every account answers the same way.
What try does
Runs every check the call meets and returns the record as it would be; nothing is stored, sent or posted.
Refuses when
The hub sets no guard of its own on this call: it refuses only on the shared checks every write meets (a missing record, a Permission the seat lacks).
When it waits
Returns in one response; nothing waits.
Example
In send mode the call returns its pending Action at once, and Form.updated delivers the result.
Add a “How many units?” field to the demo form. {
"mode": "send",
"action": {
"$id": "https://api.sb/leaseline.app/actions/action_Sd3kQ9vT2w" ,
"operation": "Form.update",
"status": "pending",
"reason": "running"
}
}To retry, send the same Idempotency-Key: the retry returns the first answer for $0. A new key reads again.
