By default only **Active** actions are visible, change the visibility filter to see additional items.

Enter the action details: * **Name** - human readable name * **Description** - verbose explanation of the action intent * **Expiration date and time** - the action will be marked as Expired and will not apply after the specified date * **Condition** - set of conditions (filters) that a test must satisfy to activate an action. Refer to [conditions](https://docs.currents.dev/guides/currents-actions/reference/conditions "mention") reference documentation * **Actions** - set of actions that will apply if a test matches the conditions.
