# Actions Links

Action links enable you to generate a set of publicly accessible links for each respondent. These links allow you to modify, update, clone, or view a report of a respondent's entry.

To create action link click on the link icon near the respondent in the respondent grid

From there you can create 3 types of links to access the respondent data.

1. **Update** will allow to update the respondent answers using the provided link.
2. **Clone** will open a new respondent session with the actual respondent answers, once saved it will create a copy of the current respondent but with the new updated answers.&#x20;
3. **Report** will display a read only report of the respondent answers.

Using the expiration time you can set a duration during the link is valid and available.

Actions link can also be dynamically created when being piped into [completion alert](/form-management/tasks/task-items/completion-alert.md) messages. As such you could create a completion alert with a unique edit link that would let the recipient of the completion alert edit back the answers if needed.
