Help center Custom Quick Actions

Choose which quick actions appear in the rotation channel message.

What are Quick Actions?

When Rotation App posts a channel message announcing the currently assigned user(s), it includes a Quick Actions dropdown. Quick Actions let your team make common rotation changes directly from the channel message — without opening the Home tab.

By default, all available Quick Actions are enabled. You can customize which ones appear, or disable them entirely.

Available Quick Actions

Quick ActionDescription
Skip user and assign nextSkips the currently assigned user and moves them to the end of the queue. The next user takes over.
Swap positions with next userSwaps the currently assigned user with the next user in the queue. The current user moves to the next position instead of the end.
Temporarily substitute with next userReplaces the currently assigned user with the next user for this shift only, without changing the queue order. Only available for single-user rotations.
Skip shiftSkips the current shift entirely, leaving no one assigned.

For group rotations, actions refer to the group instead of a single user. “Temporarily substitute” is not available for group rotations.
