System Events - Action Types
Action Types define what each Action does. The following is a list of current actions types...
| Action Type | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Log | This type will store a log entry of the event type details | Not currently in use |
| Message | This type will create a Message based on the selected Message Template | |
| Notification | This type will cause a notification to be displayed when logging into Cumulus | Not currently in use |
| Workflow | Used to call an internal workflow process | Used internally only |
For each action that you create, you are able to create multiple action types that are attached to it. Currently, only the action type Message is fully supported.
By default, when you create an action for the first time, a single action type is also created based on what you have asked the action to do.
