Actions

Sooner or later, you will need to perform actions on your data that are specific to your business.
Moderating comments, generating invoices, logging into a customer’s account, or banning users are exactly the kind of important tasks to unlock to manage your day-to-day operations.
Custom action displayed on the table-view
In your code
To create an action, you will first need to declare it in your code for a specific collection. Here we declare a Mark as Live action for the companies collection.
The action behavior is implemented in the execute() function.
agent.customizeCollection('companies', collection =>
  collection.addAction('Mark as live', {
    scope: 'Single',
    execute: async context => {
      // Perform work here.
    },
  }),
);
In the admin panel
After declaring it, your action will appear in the "Smart actions" tab within your collection settings.
An action is displayed in the UI only if:
it is set as "visible" (see screenshot below) AND
in non-development environments, the user's role must grant the "trigger" permission
You must make the action visible there if you wish users to be able to see it.
