Action Panel
API Reference
ActionPanel
Exposes a list of actions that can be performed by the user.
Often items are context-aware, e.g., based on the selected list item. Actions can be grouped into semantic sections and can have keyboard shortcuts assigned.
The first and second action become the primary and secondary action. They automatically get the default keyboard shortcuts assigned. In List, Grid, and Detail, this is ↵ for the primary and ⌘ ↵ for the secondary action. In Form it's ⌘ ↵ for the primary and ⌘ ⇧ ↵ for the secondary. Keep in mind that while you can specify an alternative shortcut for the primary and secondary actions, it won't be displayed in the Action Panel.
Example
import { ActionPanel, Action, List } from "@raycast/api";
​
export default function Command() {
  return (
    <List navigationTitle="Open Pull Requests">
      <List.Item
        title="Docs: Update API Reference"
        subtitle="#1"
        actions={
          <ActionPanel title="#1 in raycast/extensions">
            <Action.OpenInBrowser url="https://github.com/raycast/extensions/pull/1" />
            <Action.CopyToClipboard
              title="Copy Pull Request URL"
              content="https://github.com/raycast/extensions/pull/1"
            />
          </ActionPanel>
        }
      />
    </List>
  );

export default function Command() {
  return (

        actions={
          <ActionPanel title="#1 in raycast/extensions">
            <ActionPanel.Section title="Copy">

ActionPanel.Submenu
A very specific action that replaces the current ActionPanel with its children when selected.
This is handy when an action needs to select from a range of options. For example, to add a label to a GitHub pull request or an assignee to a todo.
Example
import { ActionPanel, Color, Icon, List } from "@raycast/api";
​
export default function Command() {
  return (
    <List navigationTitle="Open Pull Requests">
      <List.Item
        title="Docs: Update API Reference"
        subtitle="#1"
        actions={
          <ActionPanel title="#1 in raycast/extensions">
            <ActionPanel.Submenu title="Add Label">
              <Action
                icon={{ source: Icon.Circle, tintColor: Color.Red }}
                title="Bug"
                onAction={() => console.log("Add bug label")}
              />
              <Action
                icon={{ source: Icon.Circle, tintColor: Color.Yellow }}
                title="Enhancement"
                onAction={() => console.log("Add enhancement label")}
              />
              <Action
                icon={{ source: Icon.Circle, tintColor: Color.Blue }}
                title="Help Wanted"
                onAction={() => console.log("Add help wanted label")}
              />
            </ActionPanel.Submenu>
          </ActionPanel>
        }
      />
