Menus

Lists, editors and widgets can utilize different menu actions, such as delete, import, export, which are configured through UI screens.

A menu action can trigger data updates, queries or API calls and can be attached to a listing screen, editor screen or an individual value widget.

While it is possible to implement new menu action types, Rierino already includes a number of alternatives for different use cases.

API Actions

Certain menu actions perform calls to Rierino backend APIs. All these menu actions share the following properties:

• URL: URL path of the API endpoint to call.

• Method: REST method to use for calling API endpoint.

• Extra Body: Extra payload to add to the API call.

• Extra Headers: Extra headers to add to the API call.

• Content Type: Type of content to send ("none" for empty body).

• As Text: Whether response should be returned as text (or json).
