# User Grid - Custom Action

## **Overview**

GridMate allows users to interact with and manipulate data by adding custom actions to the GM User Grid component.

{% hint style="info" %}
To set the **JSON** configuration of the action, please refer to [Grid - Mass/Record Actions](/advanced-guides/actions-library.md) and [Grid - Custom Action](/advanced-guides/grid-custom-action.md) articles.
{% endhint %}

## Custom Action Setup

1. Click the gear icon in the top right corner, select **Setup**, then use the left-hand **Quick Find** search bar to type **Custom Metadata Types**.
2. Click **Manage Records** on the **grid** **action**.
