# Action

A type that describes a control associated with a tip.

```
typealias Action = Tips.Action
```

## Overview

Use actions to provide additional help and guidance for people looking to get started with your tip.
Actions appear at the bottom of your [`TipView`](/documentation/TipKit/TipView) in the form of buttons.

You create an action by providing an `id` and a `title`.
The `id` is a string that uniquely identifies the action.
The `title` is text that displays as the label on the button.

You can pass a function for the system to call when the action triggers by setting the `perform`
attribute in the [`init(id:title:perform:)`](/documentation/TipKit/Tips/Action/init(id:title:perform:)) initializer.
Or you can set the action parameter in the [`init(_:arrowEdge:action:)`](/documentation/TipKit/TipView/init(_:arrowEdge:action:)) initializer of your [`TipView`](/documentation/TipKit/TipView).
