useful and has countless applications. As of today, the following actions are supported:
useful and has countless applications.
As of today, the following actions are supported:
* [`view`](#open-websiteapp): Opens a website or app when the action button is tapped
* [`broadcast`](#send-android-broadcast): Sends an [Android broadcast](https://developer.android.com/guide/components/broadcasts) intent
when the action button is tapped
* [`http`](#send-http-request): Sends HTTP POST/GET/PUT request when the action button is tapped
To define the user actions, you can either pass the `actions` field as part of the JSON body (if you're
[publishing via JSON](#publish-as-json)), or use the `X-Actions` header (or any of its aliases: `Actions`, `Action`).

The `X-Actions` header (including above-mentioned aliases) supports the following formats:

Simple format examples:

An `action` is either [`view`](#open-websiteapp), [`broadcast`](#send-android-broadcast), or [`http`](#send-http-request),
and the `label` defines the button text. The other parameters depend on the action itself. Please refer to this table

| `action` | ✔️ | *view, broadcast, or http* | `view` | *all actions* | Action type |
| `label` | ✔️ | *string* | `Turn on light` | *all actions* | Label of the action button in the notification |
