Introduction

User Action as a Visibility Rule enables you to show contextual content based not just on different conditions and elements on the page, but also on specific user actions that your user may or may not perform.

Configure User Action as Visibility Rules for Flows, Self Help, Task Lists, Beacons, Pop-ups, and Smart Tips.

Use Case

If you use an application that deals with sensitive data that is related to contracts, for example, you may want to notify your end users when they attempt to download the contracts and explain to them that it is against compliance and results in a security threat. Now, using User Actions, trigger a Pop-up when a user clicks the export icon and then display a message that describes the impact.
