Action: specific behavior

This operation is an ⚙️ ActionThe action resource represents a type of object that differs from standard queries or mutations.

For a query, it returns a result already prepared by Sage Active, with no possibility to add filters, sorts, or explore the data further, or it executes an action (e.g., sending an email).

For a mutation, it executes a specific business action, also carried out by Sage Active, which will impact the data (e.g., generating a credit note from an invoice)., not a standard query.

As such, it does not support configurable filters, sorting, or pagination.
Filtering is entirely driven by the input parameters, which also allow limiting the number of results (100 records returned by default, with a maximum of 1000).
Some filter criteria enable more advanced searches. For example, using the address filter makes it possible to find an establishment located at 31 rue des Cosmonautes by simply providing a partial value such as rue cosmo.
