Execute Actions

Use execute actions to group a subset of actions, send script commands, manipulate database records, and set variables for use by other actions.

Action	Description
Group	Specifies a subgroup of actions for an event. The actions in the group can be run repeatedly in sequence or in parallel.
While Loop	Specifies that a group of one or more actions continues to run sequentially as long as the specified condition continues to be satisfied.
For Loop	Specifies that a group of one or more actions continues to run sequentially until a specified value is reached by either incrementing or decrementing an assigned variable value with each loop iteration.
For Each Database Record	Runs a database query and actions for each record.
For Each File in Folder	Runs a group of one or more actions on every file in a folder that matches the specified criteria.
For Each File in Archive	Runs a group of one or more actions on every file in an archive folder that matches the specified criteria.
