Umbraco Collection Action

This helps Claude add collection action buttons to Umbraco's backoffice toolbar, the kind that operate on entire collections rather than individual items. It fetches the latest official docs before generating manifests and TypeScript action classes, handling both navigation-based actions (via getHref) and executable actions that can trigger modals or run code. The skill knows about the additionalOptions indicator, collection conditions, and how to wire up the Context API when needed. Worth noting it clearly separates collection actions from entity bulk actions, which trips people up. Good for adding create buttons, export functionality, or any custom toolbar action without digging through the Umbraco extension registry docs yourself.

Umbraco Collection Action

What is it?

Collection Actions are buttons that appear in a collection's toolbar, providing actions that can be performed on the collection as a whole (not on individual items - those are Entity Bulk Actions). Common examples include "Create New" buttons or export functionality. Actions can either execute code or navigate to a URL.
