I installed inkscape and wanted to use it from the command line. However, for some reason I can only query and export files. Anytime I try to do anything else from this documentation page I cannot get it to work.
For example,
inkscape --action-list
only gives me
WARNING **: Invalid option --action-list
When I look at the man page that comes with the version I installed, all I have are query and export options, I see nothing about actions or verbs or anything under it.

Anyone know what might be going on?
If you are using Linux, have you installed from snap, flatpak, or ppa ?
I only use the ppa version on Ubuntu 20+
Works for me.
I'm using Windows.
Turns out I was using an older version of Inkscape. Once I updated, all my issues were solved.
