AWS Step Functions expands SDK integrations with Amazon Backup Search and 137 additional APIs

AWS Step Functions expands its AWS SDK integrations with support for Amazon Backup Search. You can now orchestrate backup discovery and management actions directly in your workflows without writing additional integration code. [AWS Step Functions](https://aws.amazon.com/step-functions/) is a visual workflow service capable of orchestrating over 14,000+ API actions from over 220 AWS services to help customers build distributed applications at scale. By directly invoking AWS services or their API actions from AWS Step Functions, customers can write less code, simplify their architecture, and save costs. In addition to the new Amazon Backup Search integration, Step Functions added support for 137 API actions across new and existing AWS services. These new actions span a wide range of AWS services, including Amazon Backup, AWS MediaConvert and Amazon Bedrock. This expansion enables you to incorporate diverse tasks such as backup operations, media analysis, and AI agent interactions into your workflows. For the full list of added services and supported API actions, visit [AWS SDK service integrations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/supported-services-awssdk.html). These enhancements are now generally available in all regions where AWS Step Functions is available. Specific services and API actions are subject to the availability of the target services in the AWS Region.
