1. A computer-implemented method for defining action recipes performed by a digital assistant application, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, an instruction to generate an action recipe dataset that defines a sequence of actions associated with multiple applications;
detecting, by the computing device, a set of inputs into the multiple applications, wherein the set of inputs corresponds to the sequence of actions;
recording the detected set of inputs into the multiple applications; and
generating, by the computing device, the action recipe dataset based on the recorded set of inputs,
wherein the digital assistant application is configured to emulate the set of inputs in response to a received command,
wherein the digital assistant application is configured to pass data from a first application of the multiple applications to a second, different, application of the multiple applications when emulating the set of inputs in response to the received command,
wherein the digital assistant application is configured to provide the action recipe dataset to a remote server to facilitate distribution to multiple computing devices that each have the digital assistant application installed thereon, and
wherein the received command instructs the digital assistant application to:
utilize a representation of an output of the first application as a value of a variable input parameter in an input command to the second application when emulating the set of inputs in response to the received command,
apply a transformation to the output of the first application to generate transformed data, and
pass the transformed data as the value of the variable input parameter in the input command to the second application.
