ConnectApi.ActionLinkDefinition

The definition of an action link. Action link definition can be sensitive to a third party (for example, OAuth bearer token headers). For this reason, only calls made from the Apex namespace that created the action link definition can read, modify, or delete the definition. In addition, the user making the call must have created the definition or have View All Data permission.

Property Name	Type	Description	Available Version
`actionUrl`	String	The action link URL. For example, a `Ui` action link URL is a Web page. A `Download` action link URL is a link to the file to download. `Ui` and `Download` action link URLs are provided to clients. An `Api` or `ApiAsync` action link URL is a REST resource. `Api` and `ApiAsync` action link URLs aren’t provided to clients. Links to Salesforce can be relative. All other links must be absolute and start with `https://`.	33.0
`createdDate`	Datetime	ISO 8601 format date string, for example, 2011-02-25T18:24:31.000Z.	33.0
`excludedUserId`	String	ID of a single user to exclude from performing the action. If you specify an `excludedUserId`, you can’t specify a `userId`.	33.0
`groupDefault`	Boolean	`true` if this action is the default action link in the action link group; `false` otherwise. There can be only one default action link per action link group. The default action link gets distinct styling in the Salesforce UI.	33.0
`headers`	List<`ConnectApi.RequestHeader`>	The request headers for the `Api` and `ApiAsync` action link types.	33.0
`id`	String	The 18-character ID for the action link definition.	33.0
`label`	String	A custom label to display on the action link button. A `label` value can be set only in an action link template. Action links have four statuses: NewStatus, PendingStatus, SuccessStatus, and FailedStatus. These strings are appended to the label for each status: label label Pending label Success label Failed For example, if the value of `label` is “See Example,” the values of the four action link states are: See Example, See Example Pending, See Example Success, and See Example Failed. An action link can use either `label` or `labelKey` to generate label names, it can’t use both. If `label` has a value, the value of `labelKey` is `None`. If `labelKey` has a value other than `None`, the value of `label` is `null`.	34.0
`labelKey`	String	Key for the set of labels to show in the user interface. A set includes labels for these states: NewStatus, PendingStatus, SuccessStatus, FailedStatus. For example, if you use the `Approve` key, you get these labels: Approve, Pending, Approved, Failed. For a complete list of label keys, see Action Links Labels in the Connect REST API Developer Guide.	33.0
`method`	`ConnectApi.HttpRequestMethod`	The HTTP method. One of these values: `HttpDelete`—Returns HTTP 204 on success. Response body or output class is empty. `HttpGet`—Returns HTTP 200 on success. `HttpHead`—Returns HTTP 200 on success. Response body or output class is empty. `HttpPatch`—Returns HTTP 200 on success or HTTP 204 if the response body or output class is empty. `HttpPost`—Returns HTTP 201 on success or HTTP 204 if the response body or output class is empty. Exceptions are the batch posting resources and methods, which return HTTP 200 on success. `HttpPut`—Return HTTP 200 on success or HTTP 204 if the response body or output class is empty.	33.0
`modifiedDate`	Datetime	ISO 8601 format date string, for example, 2011-02-25T18:24:31.000Z.	33.0
`requestBody`	String	The request body for `Api` and `ApiAsync` action link types. Escape quotation mark characters in the `requestBody` value. Note	33.0
`requiresConfirmation`	Boolean	`true` to require the user to confirm the action; `false` otherwise.	33.0
`templateId`	String	The ID of the action link template from which to instantiate this action link. If the action link isn’t associated with a template, the value is `null`.	33.0
`type`	`ConnectApi.ActionLinkType`	Defines the type of action link. Values are: `Api`—The action link calls a synchronous API at the action URL. Salesforce sets the status to `SuccessfulStatus` or `FailedStatus` based on the HTTP status code returned by your server. `ApiAsync`—The action link calls an asynchronous API at the action URL. The action remains in a `PendingStatus` state until a third party makes a request to `/connect/action-links/actionLinkId` to set the status to `SuccessfulStatus` or `FailedStatus` when the asynchronous operation is complete. `Download`—The action link downloads a file from the action URL. `Ui`—The action link takes the user to a web page at the action URL. Invoking `ApiAsync` action links from an app requires a call to set the status. However, there isn’t currently a way to set the status of an action link using Apex. To set the status, use Connect REST API. See the Action Link resource in the Connect REST API Developer Guide for more information. Note	33.0
`userId`	String	The ID of the user who can execute the action. If not specified or `null`, any user can execute the action. If you specify a `userId`, you can’t specify an `excludedUserId`.	33.0
