The Axis product can be configured to perform actions when different events occur, for example, start a recording when motion is
detected. The set of conditions that defines how and when the action is triggered is called an Action Rule.
Available Action Rule triggers and conditions include:
Applications — use installed applications to trigger the rule, see .
