Request

Path parameters

app_idstring required

Application id

action_idstring required

Action id

Response

The action was successfully retrieved.

idstring required

An unchanging identifier for an action that is used when creating a task to run it. All action ids for a subject must be unique

urlstring required

An http/https URL giving the address of the agent receiving the request to initiate the action

namestring

A human-readable name. If not specified, a name will be generated from the id

http_methodstring

The request method name to be used when making the action request to an agent. Usually POST. Defaults to POST

descriptionstring

A textual description of an action. This should describe the effect of the action because it will be presented to the operator who requests running the action before confirming it

secret_keystring

A key used to sign requests made to an agent. This is 44 characters (32-bytes, base64-encoded). If not specified, a secret will be generated at creation

certificatesstring

A chain of PEM-encoded certificates that can be used to authenticate the agent receiving action requests. If the agent uses a publicly valid X509 certificate that matches the hostname specified in its URL, then this is not needed. This is necessary for self-signed certificates using HTTPS, because the agent is always authenticated. Multiple certificates may be used, for example, when migrating from one certificate to another
