# Add Action Inputs

Actions are parameterized to provide the ultimate in flexibility. In this section, we'll walk through defining the Input parameters for an Action.

To add an input to your Action, click the "three dot" menu for the Action, and select `Inputs`.

Fill in the form with the name, type, default value and description.

&#x20;This will add the input to your Action (and it will appear in the list on the right side of the UI).

In the Action shown above, there are two required inputs. The type of the input is shown in the input dialogue box. Fill in the values of the inputs and click <mark style="color:orange;">`Apply`</mark> to run your xRunBook with these values.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.unskript.com/unskript-documentation/actions/actions/action-configuration/action-inputs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
