# Open API Request

The Open API Request action steps allows you to send queries to Open API data sources.

## Endpoints

The available endpoints will be defined by the OpenAPI specification. You can select the endpoint you need from the *Operation* dropdown. The documentation will be retrieved from the specification and displayed in the Action editor.
