When I'm in a Jira ticket and click the Actions drop-down button, it displays a graphic that seems to be trying to convey information. I'm baffled by the design decision behind this. Never in decades have I seen a drop-down button do anything except display selectable (or grayed-out) options. In this case, the following graphic appears. What is it trying to tell me?

Hello @BG 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

This Actions button relates to the Automation for Jira function. If you had sufficient permissions to create/edit Automation Rules you would see these options:

If Automation Rules had been created that were able to be triggered manually and to allow any user to trigger them, you would see a list of those rules, similar to this.
