get_assignment_action

Retrieve detailed UI metadata and preprocessing execution details for a specific action on an assignment in Pega DX, enabling structured handling of case process steps. Supports form or page view types for read-only review.

Instructions

Get detailed information about a specific action that can be performed on an assignment. Retrieves assignment action defined for an assignment step in a case process, including UI metadata and preprocessing execution. If the case type uses pessimistic locking and the client uses Constellation, this request may lock the case.
