      The Action Card icon should match the icon used for the corresponding Action Type, as configured by the Action_Type_Id_Icon_c field on the zpf_ProductGroupAction_c object.

  3. Select Save.

Action type icons

The Icon Name of an action card refers to the full path of its static icon. Zilliant uses default and standard icons you can choose from. The path format for a Zilliant icon is /resource/[linkAddress]/ActionTypeIcons/ActionTypeIcons/[iconName].svg. Replace [linkAddress] with the 13-digit number of the icon's path, and [iconName] with the icon's name. To find the icon's path, locate the icon and copy the link address of its View file link, as displayed in the following image.

Icon View File Link

For example,

The path for the "z_default_custom_icon_blue" icon is /resource/#############/ActionTypeIcons/ActionTypeIcons/z_default_custom_icon_blue.svg.

Standard action type icons

The following tables display standard Zilliant icons by color and by suggested use cases if you're using Sales IQ. For default icons, refer to the Default/Custom column in the first table. For readability, the icons are split into two tables.

Custom fields

Zilliant allows you to create custom fields on the Salesforce object that contains the data you want to display in action cards. Create custom fields to manage multiple filter criteria.

To summarize actions published from Campaign Manager, reference the zpf__ProductGroupAction__c object in an action card configuration’s Object field. Then, reference the following calculated fields for the action card configuration’s other fields.

  • Open_LS__c—This is a standard field, and useful to reference for the action card configuration’s Sum Field Filter Field Name and Count Field Filter Field Name.

    IF(Is_Visible__c && Owned_By_Me__c && zpf__ActionTypeId__c = 'LS'
    && IF(CASE(zpf__Status__c,'Identified',1,'Pursuing',1,0) = 1,TRUE,FALSE)
    ,TRUE,FALSE)
    
    • Is_Visible__c—This is a standard field referenced in the above Open_LS__c field.

      IF(Is_Cancelled__c = TRUE,FALSE,
      IF(zpf__ClosedDate__c + Visibility_Period_After_Closed__c < NOW(),FALSE,TRUE)
      )
      
    • Owned_By_Me__c—This is a standard field referenced in the above Open_LS__c field.

      IF(zpf__Account__r.OwnerId = $User.Id,TRUE,FALSE)
      
  • New_LS__c—This is a custom field that could be created as a useful reference for the action card configuration’s Badge Count Filter Field Name.

    IF(Open_LS__c && New_Action__c ,TRUE,FALSE)
    
    • New_Action__c—This is a custom field that could be created and referenced in the above New_LS__c field.

      IF(NOW() - Published_Date__c <= 1,TRUE,FALSE)
