Data Manipulation Actions
Create new record
This action type allows users to initiate the creation of a new record within the same data table. This is perfect for situations where users might want to add new data points based on the information they're viewing in the current record.
Update current record
Provide users with the ability to modify the existing data within the record view. This streamlines the data editing process and allows users to keep information up-to-date.
Delete current record
This action type empowers users to remove the current record from the data table. It's crucial to implement a confirmation step before deletion to prevent accidental data loss.
Communication Actions
Open external URL
This action will help the end-user launch a web browser and direct them to an external website associated with the data point. This is useful for providing users with additional context or resources.
Open Phone Call popup
This action helps simplify communication by enabling users to initiate phone calls directly from the record view. Clicking this action type automatically populates the phone number and opens the dial pad.
Open SMS popup
Pre-populate an SMS message with the phone number from the record and open the messaging app, enabling users to send a text message quickly.
Open Email popup
This action type pre-fills an email with information from the record and opens the user's default email app, streamlining the email-sending process.
Advanced Actions
Send notifications
This type of action will trigger push notifications to specific users or user segments based on criteria related to the record view data. This can be a powerful tool for disseminating timely updates or targeted information.
