Build your first Action Graph#

Open the Actionforge graph editor in your browser at: https://app.actionforge.dev.

By default, the graph editor shows a canvas with a Start node. This node is the entry point of your action graph.

Add more nodes#

You can add more nodes from the toolbar on the right side to the canvas. In the example below, we have created a Run Script node that will print "Hello World!" to the console once we run the action graph.

Connect the two nodes by dragging a connection from the output port of the start node to the input port of the Run Script Node.

Save Graph#

You can now save the graph locally by clicking the save button button in the left panel. You can also press Ctrl + S on Windows and Linux, or + S on macOS.

If you're using the latest versions of Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Opera, you can edit your action graph, save it, and the browser will update the file from before. This new browser feature gives the graph editor access only to files you've opened or saved in this browser session. Once you close your browser, the editor will no longer have access to any files.

Back to our graph. Once saved, you can run the graph with the following command:

actrun ./my-action-graph.act

The output will be:

Hello World!

Congratulations! You have successfully built and run your first action graph. 🎉
