Hello there,

The FB help section "Reusing Logic" is hinting about the possibility of creating a toolset project out of my action lists which I can access from any project later on.

This is exactly what I plan.

Is there more information how to do that?

In particular:

-how to call an action list of another project?

-which is the proper and safe way for that out-of-project action list to return the result?

&nbsp;

Best,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ákos

Action Lists don’t currently have specific Return values. .that is something we are looking at for a future version. Currently the safest way is to use project variables or if you are using Async groups to run the action lists then pass in a filename as an action list parameter, and write the data to the file.   
  
 You can run specific action lists of other projects using the Include Project Action.
