This action opens an intention, so a service can access the Broker APIs. The ability to do the actions in the intention will be checked against business rules.

If you encounter an error, ensure that the Broker URL is correct, and your token is valid.

Please refer to the NR Broker Repository for full usage details.

This action outputs the intention/action tokens and intention ID as environment variables. The trace ids (for viewing in observability) will be output in the console.

This is the token used to close the intention with the action-broker-intention-close action.

This is used to uniquely identify an intention. It can be used to view the intention in observability and refer to this intention in follow-on intentions.

Each action within the intention has an 'id'. The capitalized 'id' property is appended to 'ACTION_TOKEN_' and set in the environment. This token can be used to start and end an action, retrieve secrets, and provision application access.
