Actions does not deploy through patch, you need to export the whole application and as you don't want to deploy all objects again then best you import patch of additional/changed objects and configure action manually.

There are 2 approaches to do this -

1. Add the action in application and export the package, it will create a zip file, unzip it and remove all the extra artifacts that you do not
want to move and import this on prod.

2. Action do not have uuid so you can move the patch of artifacts and manually create the action on prod.

Hi Soujanya B,

Appian recommends to have an Application named <APP-NAME> Application Navigation which should contain all the Actions for your application. As you were mentioning that you want to move your new code to Prod, I believe there is already one such App in place.

You can add your new actions to that Application, take an Export of this and deploy the same in the environment you wish to.

Or simply take a patch of those newly created objects and deploy the same.

Thank you,
Arun

simple add the new objects into the existing published application and the create a patch with only missing objects and then import this patch to your prod environment.

You need to create a new application package and include only the items that are required for changes. Import this patch into the Main application(by using import patch button inside the Main application package) that is already published. Then you need to manually add new 'Application Actions' to add new actions.
