This functionality has only just been released This article is about the post-action layer, a new feature that was recently released. We're still building in new features to this functionality and so this documentation may not be fully up-to-date.
The post-action layer is the final piece of the Action Links puzzle, allowing you to trigger operations in your integrated systems in response to a user's interactions with your Links.
The post-action layer is an important part of Action Links' layered architecture. Where the pre-action layer enables you to fetch data from your integrations that you can use as part of an action, the post-action layer enables you to trigger events based on user interactions with your actions, e.g. to trigger an email to send or to save data back to an integrated system.
The pre-action layer and Post-action layer are action-agnostic – that is, they sit across all actions, allowing you to use one integration to surface data (e.g. customer data from Tessitura) and another to power the action (e.g. an Interactive Map with Airtable).
By constructing the Action Links architecture in layers we're able to build complex functionality once and deliver it across all of the available actions to serve a wide range of potential use cases.
