Corpo do Post (para copiar e colar):

Hello,

I am trying to create a new bin in the project root using the Premiere Pro UXP API, but I am stuck on the final step
of executing the action.

Environment:
* Premiere Pro Version: 25.6.3

What I have tried:
I have successfully managed to get the project, the root item, and create a binAction object. The following code
successfully runs until the project.executeTransaction part.

1 // Note: 'ppro' is from const ppro = require("premierepro");
2 // Note: 'log()' is a custom function to print to the panel.
3
4 async function createBins() {
5 try {
6 log("Step 1: Getting active project...");
7 const project = await ppro.Project.getActiveProject();
8 if (!project) {
9 log("Failed: No active project.");
10 return;
11 }
12 log("Success: Project is active.");
13
14 log("Step 2: Getting root item...");
15 const projectRoot = await project.getRootItem();
16 if (!projectRoot) {
17 log("Failed: Could not get project root.");
18 return;
19 }
20 log("Success: Root item found.");
21
22 log("Step 3: Creating bin action...");
23 const binName = "TEST_BIN";
24 const createBinAction = projectRoot.createBinAction(binName, false);
25 log("Success: Bin action created.");
26
27 log("Step 4: Executing transaction...");
28 // This is where it fails.
29 await project.executeTransaction(() => {
30 // What is the correct method to call here?
31 // createBinAction.do(); // Fails with "is not a function"
32 // createBinAction.execute(); // Fails with "is not a function"
33 }, `Create Bin: ${binName}`);
34
35 log("Bin created successfully!");
36
37 } catch (e) {
38 log(`ERROR: ${e.toString()}`);
39 }
40 }

The Specific Problem:

Inside the project.executeTransaction() callback, I am not sure how to execute the createBinAction object. I have
tried createBinAction.do() and createBinAction.execute(), but both result in a TypeError: is not a function.

My Question:

What is the correct function to call on the Action object returned by createBinAction to execute it within a
transaction for Premiere Pro v25.6.3?

Thank you for your help!

The premiere_api UXP sample shows how to create a bin; does that work for you?
