# Custom Success Messages for Quick Actions

For Create a Record, Update a Record, and Log a Call action types, you can create a custom message that displays when the action executes successfully.

![Success Message for Actions](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/extend_click/images/actions_success_message.png)

In the Salesforce mobile app and Lightning Experience, when a create, update, or Log a Call action is completed, a default success message displays, regardless of whether the action created a feed item. If you add a custom success message to one of these actions, your custom success message displays instead of the default message.

In Salesforce Classic, custom success messages have slightly different behavior. If you select Create Feed Item for a Create a Record or Log a Call action, no success message displays in Salesforce Classic. The feed item itself is the confirmation that the action executed successfully.

You can configure translations for custom success messages through the Translation Workbench. From Setup, enter Translate in the Quick Find box, and then select **Translate**. Choose **Action** for the Setup Component, and choose **Informational Message** for the Aspect.

Note If you have **All Related Objects** selected under feed tracking for a particular object, when a quick action creates related objects, a feed item is always created, regardless of the status of Create Feed Item.
