What actions are

An action is what a rule does when it matches. A rule can have one or more actions.

The actions available

  • Show a panel at check-in displays live weather, wind and tide to staff as they check in.

  • Create a task adds a task for a person or staff group, with a title and optional detail.

  • Send a notification alerts owners and managers in the app.

  • Add a handover note writes a note into the day's handover report so the next shift sees it.

Which actions suit which trigger

Check-in rules use the panel action. Forecast rules use create a task, send a notification, or add a handover note. The builder shows the right options for the trigger you pick.
