Add a Call Component Action

You add a Call Component action to an action chain to call a method on a component.

To add a Call Component action to an action chain:

  1. Open the Actions editor for the page or application.
  2. Create an action chain, or open an existing action chain to add the action in the editor.
  3. Drag Call Component from the Actions palette into the action chain.

    You can drag the action onto the Add icon ( Add icon ) in the action chain, or between existing actions in the chain. The properties pane opens when you add the action to the chain.

  4. In the Properties pane, select the component name in the Component drop-down list.

    For example, if your page contains three buttons whose IDs are Create, Update, and Save, you'll see those options available for selection in the drop-down list:
