// Import the auth strategy for the relevant access type
// Import the relevant host module if needed

const myWixClient = createClient ({
  modules: { actionCatalog },
  // Include the auth strategy and host as relevant
});


async function deleteAction(actionAppId,options) {
  const response = await myWixClient.actionCatalog.deleteAction(actionAppId,options);
