# Add a Comment Action

You can add comments to a record through action buttons, enhancing app interactivity and automation. You can set this up in two ways: **One-Click Action Buttons** or **Modal Action Buttons**. Each setup enables users to add either fixed or custom comments directly to a record.

### **One-Click Action Buttons**

1. **Choose Action**: Select **Add a Comment**.
2. **Choose a Type**: Choose if this should be recorded as a **comment** or a **note**.
3. **Define Fixed Text**: Enter the text to be automatically added to the record. You can use dynamic tokens (e.g., {{user.name}}), but users won’t be able to edit it before submission.

### **Modal Action Buttons**

1. **Choose Action**: Select **Add a Comment**.
2. **Choose a Type**: Decide if this will be a **comment** or a **note**.
3. The user will be prompted with a text input box to add their comment. They can format text, upload files, and modify the comment before submission.
