The record table. Optional for Global Action items. For more information about mobile function, see [Action functions](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/mobile/mobile-actions.md).**Note:** Differences between Global and Record actions:

-   Record: Applies an action at the record level. For example, use this option to create a button that changes the state of a record. You can set the context to Record for actions on a particular field, a particular record, or swipe actions. If the action function includes a UI parameter with the Input source field set to Auto fill, you must specify the table in the Table field.
-   Global: Applies an action at the global, or list level. For example, use this option to add a button that creates a record. Do not use the Global setting for actions that are in the context of a record, or actions that include a UI parameter with the Input source field set to Auto fill.
