# 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.
