Object

Actions are written in standard JavaScript, but development requires the use of an action-specific object. An object is structural data that holds data. Objects include $ui and $const, which have preregistered properties, and $param and $session, to which properties can be added arbitrarily. There is also $req and $res which can only be used in REST API actions.
