For example, whether users type "I want to request a day off" or "request OOO" or something else with the same meaning, the app will return the Request Time off quick action to help them proceed.

We also allow creation of a new child that doesn't exceed the existing level for a given root object. For example, consider an existing MDF object A having composites up to 6 level. You can continue to add another composite child at level 4 or 5. However, adding a composite at level 6 to create a new level 7 is restricted.
