Built-in Actions

Using Built-in Actions

Moveworks provides a wide range of built-in actions to help you built AI agents quickly.

When you want to use a built-in action in your Compound Action, you can use mw.{{action_name}} as your action.action_name. For example, if you want to use the create_generic_approval_request native action, you would use mw.create_generic_approval_request.
