What is a Device Action query?

A Device Action query is specifically designed to initiate a particular action on a device, such as sending a message, setting a reminder, or controlling smart home devices. This type of query goes beyond simply requesting information; it tells the device to perform a specific function. For example, saying "Turn on the living room lights" would be a Device Action query, directing the device to execute that command immediately.

This contrasts with other types of queries, which may not involve an action but rather a request for information or an input that requires interpretation but not direct interaction with the device's functions. Understanding the role of a Device Action query is crucial for recognizing how devices interpret user requests to perform actions autonomously.
