# Async
The Async action allows for the asynchronous running of [*Scripts*](https://github.com/stadium-software/docs/blob/main/features/scripts-and-\[Event]\(../features/events.md\)-handlers.md), [*Connector*](/connectors.md)s and web services in your application.
**Do this:**
1. Drag the Async action onto an Event handler or a script.
2. If you don't want your application's processing to wait for the Async's actions to complete before continuing, check the *Fire And Forget* property.
3. Drag the required s*cripts*, c*onnector*s or CallWebService actions onto the WaitFor section of the Async.
4. If you left the Fire And Forget property unchecked, return values from your Async's actions will be available for use after their completion.
***
