Andee Weir 17 Call Quick Action from Aura
Hi.
We have a requirement to replace the Activity Timeline in the Account's side panel with a custom version that better meets our needs. However we do not want to lose the functionality of creating a new Task/Meeting/Call that the Activity Timeline gives & would rethaer not spend time creating our own versions.
My initial thought was to create an Aura compnent that was a wrapper of those quick actions e.g. :-
cmp:-
The quick Action looks like :-
& my user's profile has access to the record type :-
The quick action itself already exists on the page layout (hence why it appears in the Activities Timeline).
I've added the component to the side panel & the button appears but when I click it, nothing happens. In the console log I see 'The action you specified isn’t available on the current record page.'
Also tried it with a create case record but same result. Works fine if the quick action calls a flow.
Any help gratefully received!

var args = {actionName: "Event.New_Meeting_Retail"};
actionAPI.selectAction(args).then(function(result){
//Action selected; show data and set field values
}).catch(function(e){
if(e.errors){
//If the specified action isn't found on the page, show an error message in the my component
console.error(e.errors);
}

did you add the action button on current recordPage. this lightning:quickActionAPI will work when button is added on record page.
thank you
