Action Types Overview

Actions are the building blocks of your automation — they define what happens when the trigger fires. You can chain multiple actions together and add conditions and delays between them.

Configuration

• Template text — your message with {{variables}} for dynamic content

• Language — nl_NL, en_US, en_GB, de_DE, fr_FR, es_ES, it_IT
• Category — UTILITY, MARKETING, or AUTHENTICATION
• Emoji picker — 100 emojis available to include in your message

Your template is submitted to Meta for approval. You can see the approval status on the automation card.
