What is the primary distinction between record list actions and related actions?

The primary distinction lies in how and where these actions are initiated within the Appian framework. Record list actions are designed to be performed from a broader context, allowing users to initiate them from the list of records, which acts as a collection of multiple entries. This means that actions can be taken on all selected records at once or on the entire list itself without focusing on a singular item.

On the other hand, related actions are context-specific and are initiated from a particular record. This means they are tailored to interact with the specifics of that single record, enabling detailed functionality or processes that pertain exclusively to the selected entry.

This focus on context helps streamline workflows and ensures that users have access to appropriate actions relevant to their current selection, which differentiates record list actions from related actions effectively. The other options do not accurately capture this functional distinction.
