In an effort to save creating a custom action for some basic scenarios - it would be great if there was a quick way to display a default, action dependent notification that would make building quicker and easier.

There are many cases where a custom action is overkill. For the examples below I would normally have a custom action doing the main thing, then a second action for “Show notification”. Instead, a “display notification” checkbox when configuring certain actions would be quicker and easier.

From the Communication group, the send email action would default to “Email sent”.

From the Data group, add row displays “Item added”, Copy to clipboard displays “Copied to clipboard”, Delete row displays “Item(s) deleted”, etc.
