Page Actions

Page actions are UI extensions that allow you create toolbar buttons in the application in Email Studio. Clicking the buttons moves data from one grid listing to an external page or a landing page, using AMPscript or your preferred programming language. You can also use AMPscript to customize page actions. The code that you create in your grid listings is used to move data to your target page.

Note Enterprise 2.0 admins create page actions.

Grid Listings

Page actions capture data from grid listings that you have created. You can export data from the following grid listings:

Business Units
Data Extensions
Data Filters
Delivery Profiles
Filter
Imports
Microsite Definitions
My Contents
My Data Relationships
My Emails
My Microsite Layouts
My Microsites
My Templates
Publication List
Roles
Send Classifications
Sender Profiles
Suppression List
Tabs
User-Initiated Emails
Users

Page Variables

Within a grid listing, you can select one or more page variables. For example, in Microsites, choose from PublishedPages, Name, TotalPages, ID, CreatedDate, and Modified.

Target Pages

Page actions point to target pages, which are either external URLs or landing pages that you create.

Note To create a page action that does not use code, use the created tab, for example, to point to an external site that you visit often. In this case, you are not moving data; instead, you are using the application as a platform to launch another site.
