Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for performing actions with respect to records maintained by a database system from within a calendar context of a calendar application. An association between a type of target object selected from a list of target objects for an organization, and an action type selected from a list of action types is created to define a quick action that is can be performed with respect to an instance of the type of target object. When a user interacts with a calendar item that relates to a record that is an instance of the target object and represents data associated with the calendar item, a quick action UI element is displayed within a main UI of the calendar application. When the user interacts with the quick action UI element, the quick action can be performed with respect to the record from within calendar context.
