Exploring actions
- You are in the correct Orchestrator folder context.
- You have the right user permissions to view and manage Actions.
To view all your Actions or other users' Actions, go to the page header and select the Inbox tab. Selecting an Action card opens the Action page to the right side of the Actions list.
The Action cards in a list display the summarized information about an Action.
In either the Pending or Unassigned tab, select the corresponding Action. The Action is opened in the right-hand section. If the Action is opened by the user to whom it's assigned, it's editable and can be completed. If a different user opens it, it's read-only.
To check an overview of your Actions or other users' Actions, go to the page header and select the Overview tab. The dashboards inside the Overview tab offer information about:
- How many Actions are Pending,Completed, or Unassigned, in a specified time, and based on their type or priority.
- The average time it takes to complete an Action.
- How a specific user handles its Actions, in a specified time.
- How users handle their actions, based on the Action Catalog to which they belong.
