Action Groups

At the moment, editing of action groups is fairly limited and you can't actually create new action groups (aside from duplicating an existing group). We will eventually add this functionality but so far demand has made it a lower-priority item.

Class Properties

Property Type Writable Description
description string Yes description of the action group
folderId integer No unique ID of the folder this action group is in
id integer No a unique id of the action group, assigned on creation by IndigoServer - not available in AppleScript
name string Yes the unique name of the action group - no two action groups can have the same name
remoteDisplay boolean No True if this action group is shown in remote clients, False otherwise
