Key Dates:
- Release: Jan 2026
We are thrilled to announce a significant upgrade to the HTTP Action Editor, giving you the power to build complex API payloads directly within Agent Studio.
The Core Why
Previously, HTTP Action bodies were limited to Mustache syntax. While great for simple text substitution, Mustache falls short when you need to construct advanced JSON structures, such as dynamic lists of objects or nested data arrays. This often forced builders to create complex workarounds in Compound Actions just to format the data before the request.
The Journey
We have unlocked the Moveworks Data Mapper syntax within the HTTP Action Body editor. This allows you to:
- Go Beyond Mustache: Break free from simple text replacement constraints.
- Build Advanced Bodies: Easily construct lists of objects and complex hierarchies using familiar mapper syntax.
- Simplify Your Logic: Perform data transformation directly inside the action definition, reducing the need for pre-processing scripts.
What's Next
This feature is now available via the HTTP Action Editor UI. We recommend trying it out for plugins that require bulk updates or complex JSON payloads to streamline your plugin architecture! Send us your feedback and recommendations for additional spruce-ups for the HTTP Action Editor UI, and we already have a v2 in the works.
