# Method Parity Between the Publisher API and the Quick Action API

The Lightning Quick Action JavaScript API allows you to interact with actions within Aura components similar to how the Salesforce Classic Publisher JavaScript API allows you to interact with publisher actions within Visualforce pages.

This table shows which Quick Action API methods map to Publisher API methods.

| Quick Action API Method (in Aura Component)                                             | Publisher API Method (in Visualforce)                                                 |
