# Set operation

This is a pre-built Action located under the **APIs List**. The functionality of this Action in Avo Assure is to set the operation for the APIs execution.

## **Syntax**

**Input Value**: `<operation_name>`

| Argument                                | Description                                                 |
| --------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<operation\_name><br>(Required)</p> | Provide the name of the APIs operation you want to execute. |

**Output Value**: N/A

| Argument | Description    |
| -------- | -------------- |
| N/A      | Not Applicable |

### **Example: Setting an Operation Name for a** APIs **Request**

In this example, we are explaining how to set the operation name to ChangeSizeProduct for a APIs request during API testing.

* **Action**: Set operation
* **Input Value**: ChangeSizeProduct
  * The input value (**ChangeSizeProduct**) specifies the operation name that should be applied to the API request. The action configures the API to use this operation for subsequent API execution.
* **Output Value**: N/A
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Set operation** action reads the value from the **Input Value** column (**ChangeSizeProduct**) and applies it as the operation name for the API call.

## 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.avoautomation.com/avo-assure/actions/apis/apis-list/set-operation.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.
