# How to execute an Action Group from the Work-Relay process

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Add a call apex action

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

To get the Global Action Group Id go to the Actions -> Action Groups, open the Action group you need and copy ID (5):

![](/files/717011c6450f8bc179cbdfca4b07d237b44ed460)
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Optionally populate the source parameter

(Optional) populate "Source" parameter (6).

In the Source you can pass a JSON Array which contains sources for each action from your Action Group. There are 2 ways you can pass sources:

* **Option 1:** Pass Action ids with record Id for each action:\
  `"{Action1_ID}":"{record1_Id}", "{Action2_ID}":"{record2_Id}",...`
* **Option 2:** Pass Object Name and Record Id. All Actions which use specified object as a source will use specified record Id:\
  `"{Object1_API_Name}":"record1_Id", "{Object2_API_Name}":"record2_Id",...`

For example if there are 4 actions in the group, 3 of them use Account as Source object, and 1 uses Contact, and you pass: `"Account":"{Account.Id}", "Contact":"{Contact.Id}"`, 3 actions will get the Account.Id as a source, and 1 will get Contact.Id.
