Custom actions, triggers, and UI fields
Create custom actions & triggers
You can register your own triggers and actions. They should be registered in custom Sitefinity modules as shown in the sample below. For more information, see Custom modules.
To register a trigger, you need to implement IServiceHookTriggerProvider interface. You also need to create a new trigger class that inherits from ServiceHookTriggerSettingsBase.
When defining trigger settings, you need to add this data in constructor:
- key - unique key for trigger
- triggerTitle - title that be displayed in UI.
- eventType - event that you want to track
- module - name of the module
Also, you can add additional event filter in IsMatch function.
Registering actions
To register custom actions, you must implement IServiceHookActionProvider interface. In addition, you need to create new action setting class inherited from IServiceHookActionSettings.
When defining action setting you need to:
- Define unique Key.
- Define action Title that is displayed in UI.
- Define ParametersType property
You can also define properties, which can be used in the UI when executing actions. For more information, see Widget designers.
When you want to encrypt field to hide sensitive data, you can use Sitefinity.Configuration.SecretData attribute
Finally, you must implement ExecuteActionAsync method as shown in the sample below.
