Show User Profile Screen

Bring the user to their profile screen.

The Show User Profile Screen action will bring the user to their profile screen in your app.

The Show User Profile Screen action can be used as an action in the components of your app (like ButtonsCollections, and much more), or it can be triggered along with other actions as part of a Custom Action.

Setting up the Show User Profile Action

In the Layout Editor

  1. Click on the plus (+) sign in the Components panel and select the Component you want to trigger the action.

  2. In the General tab on the right side of the Layout Editor, navigate to the Actions section and select Show user profile screen.

  3. You can optionally add Conditions for certain criteria to be met before a user can trigger this action.

  4. For the Show User Profile action to work, user profiles must be enabled in your app’s privacy settings. You can do this by setting the app as private (users cannot access the app without signing in) or public with either required sign-in or optional sign-in. The action will not work in a public app with no sign-in required from anyone.

In the Action Editor

  1. Select the + New Action button. If you have existing actions, click on the plus (+) sign in the left panel.

  2. Select the data source for your action.

  3. Configure your first action by clicking the first action in the sequence. You can also add Conditions to your actions, if needed.

  4. To add new actions to the flow, hover just underneath an action and click the plus button. In this way you can add the Show User Profile action as just one step in a larger workflow.

Check the Introduction to Actions page for a full list of components that can be used to trigger actions.
