Global actions not working in Interactions Menu

Issues
1

Hello, Plasmic Team :wave: is there a way to declare global actions that would be accessible through interactions menu? I’ve found that Global Context has unstable__globalActions property for adding custom global actions but I can’t make it to work (I see my registered global action inside interactions menu, but it does nothing) :thinking_face: Example in the comment :arrow_down:

plasmic-init.ts

PLASMIC.registerGlobalContext(GlobalContext, {
  name: 'GlobalContext',
  displayName: 'Global Context',
  props: {},
  unstable__globalActions: {
    submitQuizAnswer: {
      displayName: 'Submit quiz answer',
      parameters: [
        {
          name: 'question',
          displayName: 'Question Key',
          type: 'string',
        },
        {
          name: 'answer',
          displayName: 'Answer',
          type: 'string',
        },
      ],
    },
  },
});

GlobalContext.tsx

export const GlobalContext = forwardRef<
  GlobalContextActions,
  GlobalContextProps
>(function GlobalContext(props, ref) {
  const { children } = props;

  useImperativeHandle(
    ref,
    () => ({
      submitQuizAnswer: (question, answer) => {
        console.log({ question, answer });
      },
    }),
    [],
  );

  return <>{children}</>;
});

or

export const GlobalContext = (props: GlobalContextProps) => {
  const { children } = props;

  const contextValue: ContextType = useMemo(
    () => ({
      submitQuizAnswer: (question, answer) => {
        console.log({ question, answer });
      },
    }),
    [],
  );

  return (
    <Context.Provider value={contextValue}>
      {children}
    </GlobalContext.Provider>
  );
};

I’ve tried similar approach like we have for defining Element Actions but I’m not sure :relaxed:

Hey @flawless_capybara! The global actions are currently in an experimental phase. We will be releasing them officially this week and will be removing the unstable prefix.
However, there will be some small changes in the registration process.

If you would still like to test it before the official release, I can help you via DM

thanks, Samuel, for letting me know :raised_hands: no rush from my side, I can wait for the official release
