Actions

Actions are one of the building blocks of Descope flows, enabling you to perform specific tasks during user authentication journeys. They can be combined with screens and conditions to create complex authentication workflows.

An action step in a flow can perform various tasks, such as initiating and completing authentication (e.g., social login, passkeys, or magic link verification), updating user information, creating tenants, associating roles, and much more.

Adding Actions to Flows

To add an action within your flow, within the console flow builder, click the blue + at the top left, and select Action.
