How to Find All Actions from an environment

Question

Hi, 
 
 We have requirement to find all action list from specific environment. Is there any way to find that. 
 We can do it manually but we have more than 20 application and each application has several Actions. So doing it manually will be huge efforts. 
 Basically we are looking at below data 
 Action Name Underlaying Process model name Initiator of Process Model Application Name 
 
 Thanks

Ajinkya, As far as I know there is a is no ootb or any direct automated way to get this. Just a thought of exporting application and it might contain xml which will have details of actions in it. Probably you can write a xpayh snippet to read it.

Till now there is no OOB available 
To achieve this you have to build the plug-in to do the following. 
List the applications within the environment (preferably a method) 
List out the application specific process models which are configured as the actions (preferably a method) 
Get the process model specific properties like action name, process model name (preferably a method) 
Get the process model specific instance propertices like initiator (preferably a method) 
 
Appian level implementation 
Create a cdt with the fields like applicationName, processModelName, actionName, initiatiorName 
Use the above methods to get the details using looping functions 
Pass the cdt to Export cdt to excel or to the grid as per the requirement.

Hi Ajinkya, 
 
Action list is visible to user based on security setting. So, till 18.3 version, there is no automated way in Appian to extract this info for an environment (like Action Name | Underlaying Process model name etc. ). You have to do it manually. Thanks
