Actions
Actions give life to the app. They save data, charge credit cards, sign the user up, send emails, connect to external services, show elements, etc.
This section covers all of the actions in the core library and their respective parameters.
Account actions are actions that create and manage user accounts in your app.

Email actions let you format and send emails as well as calendar appointment requests.
Emailing in Bubble comes with some default settings, and the article below explains how you can customize those settings to suit your app's needs.
Using custom actions you can perform a lot of tasks related to how other events are triggered, such as:
- Scheduling or triggering a custom event with different parameters
- Scheduling or canceling API workflows (workflows that run server-side)
- Running recurring events (such as running a workflow every five seconds)
Conditions are used to determine whether a workflow or action should run or not, by checking whether something is true. The article below covers how they work.
Dynamic expressions are used both to set up conditions, and are highly useful in different actions that you may want to add to your workflows. If you are unfamiliar with this subject, we recommend reading through the guide below:
All apps have the occasional bug, and our debugging tools help you squish them efficiently. The debugger helps you go through workflows step by step to see how they perform and the values they return.
