Action

An Action is an Activity directed towards specific users. Actions show up in a user's Actions stream on their home page. When created via this API, an action will be an App Action, and the icon for the app will be displayed next to the action.

Example:

Create Action

The JSON for an Action is the same as an Activity with the "openSocial" and "deliverTo" fields present. POST to /api/core/v3/activities to generate a new action. See Sending Actions for more information on creating actions. The minimum set of fields you must include are the following, where the "deliverTo" field has a valid list of Person URI's.

 {
    "title": "Simple activity title",
    "content": "See this activity!",
    "openSocial" : {
        "deliverTo" : [
            "https://example.jiveon.com/api/core/v3/people/1234",
            "https://example.jiveon.com/api/core/v3/people/1235"
        ]
    }
 }
