Understanding Server Actions in Next.js 14
Learn how to use server actions in Next.js 14 to simplify form handling, server mutations, and API integration.


Next.js 14 introduces a powerful new way to handle server-side logic using Server Actions. In this article, we’ll explore how they work and why they matter.
1export async function action(formData: FormData) {
2 'use server'
3 const name = formData.get('name')
4 // process name\n}"
5},
Server Actions eliminate the need for separate API routes for simple data handling.

You can also combine Server Actions with file uploads, mutations, and even session-based logic.
