# Actions

After installing Gift Card Factory, you will have access to 4 new actions in Shopify Flow:

* **Create Gift Card**
* **Create Gift Card V2**
* **Get Gift Card**
* **Disable Gift Card**

All actions use app credits. Anytime action is taken - app will use **one** Flow credit.

### Create Gift Card

This action is deprecated. Use **Create Gift Card V**2 instead

### Create Gift Card V2

This action creates native Shopify Gift Card and optionally sends it to selected customer.
