APLs 101
APLs are what SimC uses to tell the sim which actions to use, and how to use them. While this isn't an all encompassing document, you can check further imformation on the SimC Wiki.
There are 2 default action lists in SimC, precombat and default (inherited as just actions). To set actions inside of a list you use this format:
actions.actionList=spell1
actions.actionList+=/spell2
All APLs will use the 2 default action lists, and some will add others to separate the rotation into logical pieces. Take shadow for example, we currently have precombat, default, aoe, cleave, and single for the various situations.
All actions follow the syntax above as actions.actionList+=/spell_name,if=condition1|condition2&condition3 with | representing OR and & representing AND. Below you will find a list of available properties for spells used within SimC. All actions can be negated by adding ! in front of the condition, like if=!buff.shadowform.up.
