- ### Items

  - #### type

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [1,1]

    Type whose instances are searched for.

  - #### variable

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Variable to hold found instances. Not yet supported.

  - #### query

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Query to apply when searching for instances. (Alternative to searchFilter. This is tried as the first one.)

  - #### searchFilter

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Filter to apply when searching for instances. (Alternative to query. This is tried as second one.)

  - #### options

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Options to use when executing the search.

  - #### parameter

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,-1]

    Action parameters.

  - #### scriptingExpression

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Expression to evaluate for each object found.

  - #### aggregateOutput

    Flags: RAM,runtime

    Multiplicity: [0,1]

    Whether to aggregate and pass forward the output of expression evaluations that are done for each object found. (Meaningful only if scriptingExpression is specified.) Default is true for compatibility reasons. Set to false to optimize memory consumption.
