The Request Focus action brings the RuneLite client window to the foreground, taking focus from whatever application you are currently using.

This action has no configurable fields.
- On Windows, this uses the standard window focus API. Windows may suppress the focus request if another application is in the foreground and the game window is not on the taskbar's active application list. In this case, the taskbar button may flash instead of the window coming to the front.
- On macOS, the behavior depends on focus-stealing permissions.
- Request Focus is most effective when combined with an audio or visual action (such as In-Game Sound Effect or Screen Flash) so that you notice the alert even if the focus request is suppressed by the OS.
- Common use: pair it as the first action in an alert so the game window is foregrounded before the Screen Flash or sound fires.
