UI Actions › Actions › Get App

This action will give you a reference to a running app, for use in another action of UI Actions. When it's not already running, it'll be launched.

Its properties (like windows, focused window, whether the app is hidden, etc.) are a static snapshot from the time this action was triggered. For example, the list of windows in the returned App Reference will not change! This is usually not a big deal but might become an issue in long or long-running workflows.

Parameters

App

Select an app that should be returned as the action's result.

Type: An app from a pre-defined list of available apps

Return Value

Running App reference
