12.1 Managing Actions

When you create a bundle, all actions are enabled by default, meaning that after you add them to a action set, they run according to the action set’s options. However, not all action sets are enabled by default. You can choose to modify the action sets. For more information on modifying the action set options, see Section 12.2, Modifying Action Set Options.

The following table lists the tasks you can perform to manage actions associated with the bundle. For more information on the different actions, see Actions.
