Run it from Shortcuts #
- Give the action a recognizable name and tap Save.
- In Apple Shortcuts, add Shortcutify’s Execute Action and select the saved action.
- Supply any Param or File slots you bound in the inputs, then run the shortcut.
If the result is unexpected, open Logs in Shortcutify, select the run, and inspect this step’s inputs and response.
This action supports multiple pages of results. Open its Fetch setting to retrieve more pages when one page is not enough. Each page adds a service request.
