apply_view_sortsApply sort conditions to a view. Pass an empty array to clear all sorts.
create_extensionwrite actionCreate a new extension (block) in an Airtable base. Returns the block ID needed for installation. Use this to register custom extensions before installing them.
create_extension_dashboardwrite actionCreate a new extension dashboard page in a base. Extensions are installed onto dashboard pages.
