Action Nodes are the Nodes responsible for performing work within a Flow. They serve as the functional core of your application's logic, enabling data integration, transformation, and control over the user interface and application state.

Action Nodes will be grouped in multiple sections, Basic, and any action nodes that may be added from integrations (e.g. Shopify).

You can quickly access action nodes by utilizing the search tool.

All Action Nodes are grouped into ten primary functional categories, covered in detail in the following documentation sections:
