The following APIs will support additional parameters, allowing users to configure the conditions of the actions available within an App:

• Get Action Settings
  /k/v1/app/actions.json [GET]
• Update Action Settings
  /k/v1/preview/app/actions.json [PUT]

A new operator is will be added for the Text area field, enabling the use of conditions such as is empty and is not empty.
This enhancement will allow users to filter records based on whether the Text area field is blank or not.
