I think this page has the documention that you need but it is giving a 404 error right now. The Adobe “stage” documents have lots of intermittent 404 error issues. [https://developer-stage.adobe.com/photoshop/uxp/2022/ps\_reference/media/executeasmodal/](https://developer-stage.adobe.com/photoshop/uxp/2022/ps_reference/media/executeasmodal/) The main thing with API 2 is running the execute as modal. See this post here. > [@How To Get BatchPlay To Work With API 2](http://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/t/how-to-get-batchplay-to-work-with-api-2/3760/28): > > That doesn’t tell us anything about whether or not modeless Photoshop dialog interaction will be supported in API 2. That is a huge deal for some plugins if that functionality gets dropped. I really wish we had some clarification on this. Also, if you want to see a basic working example of using executeAsModal in API 2 then download this sample plugin. Just change the .ccx to .zip and you can view the files. I made this for a bug report to give to Adobe for a text resizing bug. However, the executeAsModal part works as it should.
