    There's also the Reference of each action available here Actions reference - Power Automate | Microsoft Learn

    You can also find this in the Help menu of PAD or by clicking "More Info" when using an action in PAD.

    Had seen this before, but there was no one single view of the actual action names to do a Ctrl F search and therefore had to create one 😊.
