Which Actions are Available with Which Event Triggers?

("X" indicates the Action is available for that Event; gray indicates the Action is not available for that Event.)

The EFT service must be running for an Event Rule to fire.

Certain Actions are only available with certain triggers, as shown in the table below. For example, the User Disconnected event trigger has no reason to trigger the Cleanup Folder Action.
