Like many other list pages in the Monetate platform, the Actions list page is a table that contains basic information for each action.

The Actions list page

Above the table are tools to help you find one or more actions or types of actions. In addition to the search bar on the left-hand side, you can filter the list by action type and by experience use.

You can sort the table's contents in alphabetical or reverse alphabetical order at any time by clicking the NAME header. Sort the contents by creation date in chronological order or reverse chronological order by clicking the CREATION TIME header.

If Monetate engineers built an action, then the Monetate logo appears to the right of the CREATION TIME column.

The CATEGORY column displays the type of action and the subcategory, if the user who created the action input one in Action Builder. Click CATEGORY to sort the table's contents by action type category in alphabetical or reverse alphabetical order.

The EXPERIENCE USAGE column shows the number of active and inactive experiences an action is part of or if the action is not used at all.

The modal contains options to add, edit, or delete the action's name, description, category, and subcategory. Clicking EDIT IN BUILDER launches Action Builder on the Details tab. Click ADD CONDITION to add action conditions.

Editing an action in Action Builder affects all associated experiences.

Clicking CREATE EXPERIENCE WITH ACTION takes you to the Experience Editor page with the action template ready for you to configure.

Additional Options

When you place your mouse pointer on an entry in the table, the additional options menu (...) appears at the far-right side.
