{% hint style="warning" %} **Note:** * If we try to apply sort in a column which is not visible on the screen it will fail, and mention Column does not present as error on Avo Assure client. * If we apply sort on a column which are not sortable it will fail, and mention column is not sortable as error on Avo Assure client. * Sort Table action is applicable to all grids across all products. Even if the grid has the first row as a filter, it will still work. {% endhint %} **Example:** **Performs sorting on a specified table column in the defined order** The **Sort Table** action takes the value from the Input Value column (e.g., **Instrument;ascending**) and sorts the specified column in the given order.
