In Email Parser, an action is the third step of the workflow. After setting up an email account and configuring the parsing rules, actions are what actually do something useful with the data extracted from each incoming email.
Actions can do many things: write data to a spreadsheet, add a row to a database, send an HTTP request, run an external program, and much more. Email Parser includes more than 30 different action types, covering a wide range of use cases. If none of the built-in types suit your needs, you can even write your own using scripting languages such as C#, JavaScript, or PowerShell. Check out the menu on the left of this page to see detailed information about each action type.
Bear in mind that the Email Parser Web app supports most actions, but not all. Actions that involve local files or running external commands are generally only available in the Windows desktop application. Check out the compatibility table for a full list of differences between the two versions.
