4 steps inputs: actionGroupName, actionName, packageName, sessionToken, targetGroupName outputs: actionId, actionStatus
1
resolvePackage
Resolve the deployment package by name to obtain its id before building the action.
2
resolveActionGroup
Resolve the action group by name to obtain its id for approval and targeting.
3

  title: Tanium Deploy A Package As An Action
  summary: Resolve a package, action group, and target computer group by name, then create and execute the action.
  description: >-
    The standard action-deployment pattern for the Tanium Platform. The workflow
    resolves a deployment package by name, an action group that governs approval
    and targeting, and a target computer group that scopes the affected
    endpoints, then creates a saved action that deploys the package to the
    targeted endpoints. Every step spells out its request inline, including the
    session header used for token authentication, so the flow can be read and
    executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
