An Operation is a task that executes when a JSON package runs. Operations can be used to run an action or an expression at the same time as the package. They are optional when creating a extraction package, but are mandatory for looping packages. In the latter case, the operation will run for each instance of the package.
Operations can also be used to run another package. This enables you to create nested packages, as packages by default cannot have iterations inside them.
You can add operations to a JSON Workbench package from the same interface used to create and edit it.
