Is perform-action replacement to call-service?

Because I can see certain discrepancies between several locations where the subject is touched, I would ask first in general topic. Or, possibly, there is some misunderstanding on my side.

I’m using svc2evnt component to raise custom events.
Its docs contains example of raising the custom event, on tab_action called from the custom card. It has worked for me for years.

type: 'custom:button-card'
  tap_action:
    action: call-service
    service: svc2evnt.fire_event
    service_data:
      event_type: custom_event
      data:
        domain: media
        id: playpause

Now I’m trying to implement the same into flex-table-card. But it raises the error: Error: Expected one of none, toggle, more-info, perform-action, url, navigate, assist, fire-dom-event, but received: call-service

HA’s tap_action documentation doesn’t list call-service as an allowed value for action.

Custom Button docs list both: perform-action and call-service.

Obviosuly I failed to raise an event using perform-action. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be looking for the help.
Here is my attempt:

    tap_action:
      action: perform-action
      perform-action: call-service
      service: svc2evnt.fire_event
      service_data:
        event_type: custom_event
        data:
          domain: fordpass_msgs
          mode: remove
          id: 2
      confirmation:
        text: |
          Are you sure?

GUI reacts on click, drawing a ripple animation; however, no confirmation is shown. No error/warning in logs, no event raised.

Question is: is it a limitation of flex-table-card (but it follows HA docs). Is call-service extension to custom:button-card? Is it possible to call a custom svc2evnt event without the use of action:call-service?

The action name is perform-action but then the key name below is perform_action. Also, probably without call-service, something like this:

Thank you. It works!

So action: perform-action is a new syntax that reflects services changed to actions, right?

Yes I believe so.
