Use this to flag transactions that should be declined. - `ALLOW_ONLY`: Adds `authRecommendation: "ALLOW"` when the transaction matches a registered merchant. If the transaction does **not** match any `ALLOW_ONLY` trigger, the action is returned with `authRecommendation: "BLOCK"` (inverse semantics). Use this to create allowlists where only registered merchants are permitted. - `REWARD`: No special behavior. Passed through as-is. - Any other value: Treated as a custom type and passed through as-is. properties: type: type: string description: > Optional action type.
