• Key Concepts: 
  Instance action is a feature of the BC-ESI-RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model. It allows developers to create and manage instances of an application, such as creating a new instance of a customer order or updating an existing instance. Instance actions are used to perform operations on the instance, such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting.
  
  How to use it: 
  Instance actions are used to perform operations on an instance. To use instance action, developers must first create an instance of the application they wish to work with. Once the instance is created, developers can then use the instance action to perform operations on the instance. For example, they can create a new customer order or update an existing customer order.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using instance action, it is important to ensure that all operations are performed in the correct order. For example, when creating a new customer order, it is important to first create the customer order and then update it with any additional information. Additionally, when updating an existing customer order, it is important to first read the existing customer order and then update it with any changes.
