Cyantraniliprole is an insecticide of the diamide class (IRAC MoA group 28).{{cite web|url=http://irac-online.org/documents/moa-classification/|date=March 2020|publisher=Insecticide Resistance Action Committee|title=IRAC Mode of Action Classification Scheme Version 9.4|author=IRAC International MoA Working Group}} It shows strong activity on lepidoptera (caterpillars), and since it shows systemic activity, it is also active against sucking pests such as aphids and whitefly.{{Cite journal |last=Du |first=Shaoqing |last2=Hu |first2=Xueping |date=February 15, 2023 |year=2023 |title=Comprehensive Overview of Diamide Derivatives Acting as Ryanodine Receptor Activators |url=https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.jafc.2c08414 |journal=Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry |volume=71 |issue=8 |pages=3620-3638}}

As part of an ongoing court dispute by the Center for Biological Diversity, in November 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ordered the United States Environmental Protection Agency to consider harms to plants and animals under the Endangered Species Act, and to put in place appropriate protections.[https://biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press-releases/legal-victory-court-orders-epa-to-protect-endangered-wildlife-from-toxic-pesticide-2022-11-22/ Legal Victory: Court Orders EPA to Protect Endangered Wildlife From Toxic Pesticide] The draft report by the EPA showed that cyantraniliprole is likely to adversely affect about 41% of endangered or threatened species.{{Cite journal |last=Erickson |first=Britt E. |date=February 3, 2023 |title=Cyantraniliprole likely harms endangered species, EPA finds. |url=https://cen.acs.org/environment/pesticides/Cyantraniliprole-likely-harms-endangered-species/101/i5 |journal=Chemical and Engineering News |volume=101 |issue=5}}
