Get Custom Invocable Actions

Gets the list of all custom invocable actions. Some actions require special access. This resource is available in REST API version 32.0 and later.

Sending email with the emailAlert action counts against your daily email limit for workflows. For more information, see “Daily Allocations for Email Alerts” in Salesforce Help.

When invoking an Apex action using the POST method and supplying the inputs in the request, only the following primitive types are supported as inputs:

Blob
Boolean
Date
Datetime
Decimal
Double
ID
Integer
Long
String
Time

Describe and invoke for an Apex action respect the profile access for the Apex class. If you don’t have access, an error is issued.

If you add an Apex action to a flow, and then remove the Invocable Method annotation from the Apex class, a runtime error in the flow occurs.

When a flow user invokes an autolaunched flow, the active flow version runs. If there’s no active version, the latest version runs. When a flow admin invokes a flow, the latest version always runs.

If any of these elements are used in a flow, packageable components that reference the elements aren’t automatically included in the package.

Apex action
Email alerts
Post to Chatter core action
Quick Action core action
Send Email core action
Submit for Approval core action

For example, if you use an email alert, manually add the email template that’s used by that email alert. To deploy the package successfully, manually add those referenced components to the package.

For more information about actions, see the Actions Developer Guide.
