What can I do with action detail fields?

The Actions feature offers a simple way for you and your team to track and complete tasks. Tailored to suit diverse organizational needs, you can create custom fields to capture different pieces of information. Moreover, to ensure details are only updated by authorized team members, you can control which users can edit fields in each action, ensuring data integrity and operational efficiency.
