Actions

Actions are "things to do" once a Workflow is triggered. Superflow offers you an abundance of different "things to do", whether you want to manipulate the user's frontend, store data in your Project or send a message to your internal chat service.

Types​

  • Superflow Actions: These are executed within Superflow and are categorized as Backend Actions.
  • Client Actions: These are executed within the user's session and are categorized as Frontend Actions.
  • Provider Actions: These are executed within a connected Provider and are categorized as Backend Actions.

It is important to understand that Frontend Actions (e.g. running custom JavaScript code or updating the UI), cannot be initiated from Backend Triggers because there is no active session with the user's browser.
