Quick action buttons provide users with fast, one-tap access to frequently used features or tasks. The main purpose is to: save time by reducing the number of steps to complete a task, improve efficiency for both users and teams, or highlight key actions that are relevant to daily operations. You can add up to four Quick Action Buttons to your app's homepage.

Create Quick Action Buttons

  1. Navigate to the Engage module of your dashboard.

  3. Click on Setup Quick Action Buttons in the upper right.
  4. Configure each Quick Action Button by adding the following information for each:
    • Action Button: Select the desired action, such as:
      • Amenity Reservation General
      • Amenity Reservation- Specific Amenity
      • External Link
        • Opens a URL in the app. 
        • When External Link is selected, a Use external browser for web links checkbox will appear.
        • Check this box to open the link in the device's native browser instead of within the Cove app.
        • This is useful for third-party web apps that are not compatible with in-app web views.
      • New Service Request
      • New Service Request- Specific Issue Type
      • Visitor Management

      • All roles (default): By default, Quick Action Buttons are visible to all of your users.
      • Internal Team Only (Staff & Employees): Select this option if you want the Quick Action Button to be visible only to your building team members.
  5. To add another button, click Add Additional Button and repeat step 4.
  6. To view and check your quick action buttons, open your building app and refresh by pulling down from the top of the screen.
