Examples

"entity_action": {
    "type": "origins:area_of_effect",
    "radius": 10,
    "shape": "sphere",
    "bientity_action": {
        "type": "origins:target_action",
        "action": {
            "type": "origins:spawn_entity",
            "entity_type": "minecraft:lightning_bolt"
        }
    }
}

This example will summon a lightning bolt on entities within a 10 block spherical radius. 

"entity_action": {
    "type": "origins:area_of_effect",
    "radius": 32,
    "bientity_action": {
        "type": "origins:target_action",
        "action": {
            "type": "origins:set_on_fire",
            "duration": 5
        }
    },
    "bientity_condition": {

This example will set entities within a 32 block radius on fire for 5 seconds if the entities that are within the radius can be "seen" by the entity that invoked the action.
