Providing you have sufficient access control permissions, the Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action provider enables you to write a Luminesce SQL query that retrieves actions defined within task definitions from the Workflow Service.
See also: Workflow.TaskDefinition
Basic usage
select * from Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action where <filter-expression>
Data fields
By default, Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action returns a table of data populated with particular fields (columns). You can return a subset of these fields.
To list fields available to return, their data types, whether fields are considered 'main', and an explanation for each, run the following query using a suitable tool:
select FieldName, DataType, IsMain, IsPrimaryKey, SampleValues, Description from Sys.Field where TableName = 'Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action' and FieldType = 'Column';
Note: Fields marked 'main' are returned by queries that select a caret character, for example select ^ from Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action.
Examples

Example 2: Retrieve definition of a particular action
select * from Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action where Action = 'StartWorker';
Example 3: Retrieve all actions of a particular type
select * from Workflow.TaskDefinition.Action where ActionDetails like '%CreateChildTasks%';
