WORKFLOW ACTIONS

What you can configure.

Choose an action in the workflow builder, connect an account, and map its inputs. These actions are available in the catalog; your account access and a successful test determine whether they work for your setup.

Delete rows

Write

Delete up to 1000 rows matching one equality condition and return the exact affected-row receipt.

Permissions and limits

Account permissions

  • DELETE on the table

Operation limits

  • When more than 1000 rows match, SQL Server chooses the affected rows without an ordering guarantee.

A repeated request may repeat the external action. Review the previous result before retrying a write.

Execute SQL query

Write

Run parameterized T-SQL against the selected SQL Server database.

Permissions and limits

Account permissions

  • Privileges required by the SQL statement

Operation limits

  • SQL may change data. Use a database role with only the privileges this workflow needs.
  • At most 1000 returned rows and 2 MB are emitted. Add TOP or another server-side predicate when the database must avoid producing a larger result.
  • Cast high-precision decimal results to varchar so workflow JSON keeps every digit.
  • A lost write response is marked uncertain and not repeated.

A repeated request may repeat the external action. Review the previous result before retrying a write.

Insert row

Write

Insert one row and return the exact affected-row receipt.

Permissions and limits

Account permissions

SETUP

Start with a controlled test.

01Connect the intended account

Use the account and permissions required for your process. Review the connection check before configuring a workflow action.

02Review inputs and access

Select a listed operation and map its required inputs. Use test records and add a human approval before writes that need review.

03Confirm the result

Inspect step outputs and confirm the result in Microsoft SQL Server. A saved workflow is not a completed provider action.
