This page is for application designers who need to configure specific operations that will change data in the stream.

A stream item action belongs to a stream. It represents the smallest, specific operation on the data in a stream.

For information about the properties toolbar, and about the sections Parent Details, Analysis Models, Description and Audit Summary, see Common Properties.  We recommend you always add a Description that explains the purpose of the item you are creating. 

For a full list of all the PhixFlow property tabs and windows, see Properties, Windows, Menus and Toolbars.
