Thank you. I did get an Action to operate today. My action also uses a Google Maps link.
I can click on "Identify Features", which opens a "Identify Results" panel. Then I can click on a feature in that layer, open Actions in the "Identify Results" panel, and click on the action, which runs the action. Now I'm trying to make the action more accessible. Am I correct in my assumption that the button just to the right of "Identify Features" should list my Action in the dropdown list? So list stuff like this: http://www.mflan.com/temp/action1.jpg Figure 5 was taken from: https://www.geodose.com/2018/04/qgis-tutorial-how-to-create-action.html When I click on that little black triangle on the button just to the right of "Identify Features" it shows an empty, white box. When I click on the button is doesn't do anything. When I hover over the button it says "no action selected". Ideally I would like for the action to run if I just click on the feature.

Hi Mike, Just create an action with something like this to see it in action: https://www.google.pt/maps/@[% @click_x %],[% @click_y %] This will open google maps at the place you clicked. If you want to get something from the action called, you have to capture its output (and return the right value from your script). As Richard said, start with the default actions and you will see different kinds of things that can be done with actions. Capturing the clicked X,Y is straight forward. Jorge
