What is unique about Server Actions compared to Client Actions?

The correct answer highlights that Server Actions operate on the server side, which is fundamental to understanding the architecture of OutSystems applications. Server Actions are designed to handle tasks that require access to server resources, such as interacting with databases or performing operations that require security or business logic that should not be exposed to the client side for safety reasons. This means they process data, execute complex logic, and perform operations that benefit from the server's resources, like greater processing power or direct access to the database.

In contrast, Client Actions run in the browser and are primarily used for UI-related tasks, such as updating the user interface or responding to user input. They are limited in terms of security and can only access data that has been made available to the client. Understanding this distinction is crucial for managing data flow and application performance in OutSystems.

The other choices present potential misconceptions about the functionalities of Server and Client Actions. While Client Actions cannot access database resources directly, Server Actions are explicitly designed to perform such operations. Additionally, the statement regarding Server Actions not accepting Input Parameters is not accurate, as they can accept parameters, albeit with specific considerations regarding their use on the server side. Lastly, background processes are typically managed by the server, not Client Actions, which again emphasizes
