Actions

The Actions view provides an overview of your repositories and their workflows, allowing you to quickly see the latest workflow status.

The Actions view displays one card for each repository. Repositories are grouped by organization and sorted alphabetically by repository name. Each card shows the repository’s main branch.

  • Clicking the repository name opens the Commits & Deployments view, automatically scrolled to the selected repository.
  • Clicking the branch name opens the repository on GitHub in a new browser tab.

Workflow tags

At the bottom of each card you will find workflow tags. Each tag represents a workflow configured for the repository’s main branch.

A workflow tag is displayed only if at least one workflow run exists.

The color of the tag and the icon on the right indicate the status of the latest workflow run.

Clicking a workflow tag opens the corresponding workflow run on GitHub in a new browser tab.

A workflow tag can have one of the following states:

  • Success
  • Error
  • In progress
  • Waiting
  • Skipped

Filtering repositories

To quickly find repositories, you can use the repository filter in the toolbar.

The filter matches repositories whose names contain the entered text. Filtering is case-insensitive.

You can also specify multiple filter values separated by commas. For example:

one,two

This will display all repositories whose names contain either "one" or "two".


Configuration options

For a detailed explanation of And Action's configuration, see Configuration.

Configuration options for the Actions view are defined under the actions property in your andaction.yml file.

Currently, the Actions view supports one option:

  • excluded-workflows

excluded-workflows

You may have workflows that you do not want to display in the Actions view. For example:

  • workflows that run on feature branches
  • workflows that run on a schedule
  • internal or manual workflows that are not relevant for monitoring deployments

To exclude them, add an excluded-workflows section to your And Action configuration.

actions:
  excluded-workflows:
    - Manually deploy app

The list items refer to the workflow name defined inside the workflow file, not the filename.

For example, the configuration above would exclude the following workflow:

# manual-deployment.yml
name: Manually deploy app

on: [workflow_dispatch]

jobs:
  job1:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
  # ...
