Open action in the Apple Pages package

The Open action in the Apple Pages package enables you to open an existing Pages document (.pages) file on macOS. Use this action at the beginning of any workflow that reads, edits, or formats a Pages file. It ensures that the automation accesses the correct document before performing subsequent operations.

Settings

  • In the File path field, enter or browse to the full path of the file to open. For example, /Users/yourusername/Documents/Page1.pages
    Note: You can only open a file with .pages format.
  • In the Create session field, use one of the following tabs for creating a session:
    • Local session: to specify a session name that can be used only in the current bot.
    • Global session: to specify a session name that can be used across multiple bots, such as parent bots, child bots, and all other child bots of the parent bot.

      Recommendation: The parent and child bots should have the same package version.

    • Variable: to specify a session variable.
