On 'back' button pressed

On barcode scanned

Triggered when the device successfully scans a barcode.

On remote data

Triggered when data is received from the Get remote data action.

On remote site closed

Triggered when a pop-over browser showing remote content is closed by the user. It is opened by the Show remote site action.

Intel AGI actions

Log event

Log a named event for Intel AGI's analytics service. Parameters can be provided in URL format, e.g. foo=bar&baz=ban.

Add to media cache

Download a media file from the Internet and store it on the local device storage, allowing it to be used offline in future.

Clear all cookies

Remove all cookies saved with the Set cookie action from the device. (The user's browser cookies are not affected.)

Clear media cache

Delete all media files downloaded with Add to media cache.

Remove cookie

Remove a cookie set with the Set cookie action. (The user's browser cookies are not affected.)

Remove from media cache

Remove a file added with Add to media cache.

Set cookie

Set a cookie on the device. This is a substitute for local storage. The user's browser is not affected; storage is for the convenience of the app only.

Close remote site

Close a remote site being displayed with the Show remote site action.

Get remote data

Make a background AJAX request using Intel AGI's service. The On remote data trigger will fire when completed.

Install update

Install a pending update if one is ready.

Launch external site

Open a URL in the user's default browser on the device. The user will leave the app, unlike the Show remote site action.

Scan barcode

Open a fullscreen QR code reader. On barcode scanned will trigger on a successful scan.

Set auto-rotate

Prevent the device from automatically rotating the display when the device changes orientation. This can force a specific orientation when used with Set orientation.

Show remote site

Show a remote URL in an in-app browser. The user does not leave the app. The user can press a close button to return to the app, unlike the Launch external site action.

Update connection

Check whether the device's connection type has changed (e.g. 3G, Wifi, etc).

Add virtual page

Use when opening a new screen you want to be able to close with the 'back' button. The next time the back button is pressed after this action will prevent the device default action and trigger On 'back' button pressed.

Remove virtual page

Remove a previously added virtual page, e.g. if cancelling a screen.
