What, if anything, does checking off the checkbox do when an Action Item is created?
Hi @Lindsey Froland , welcome to the Atlassian Community!
Action items Add a checklist item and assign the task to another person using an @ mention. Items assigned to others show up in their tasks list under their profile. They can tick them off as the task is completed. If a date is added, the task turns red if it becomes past due. Type /action to quickly add this element from the slash command.

It’s just a checkbox, which can include a user mention and a date.
Users can also access all tasks from their profile.
Hey Lindsey,as Łukasz already mentioned the native functionality is relatively basic. But there are quite a few apps on the Marketplace that can add more functionality, like better tracking, recurring tasks, notifications or integrations with other tools. Disclaimer: I work at Lively Apps, and we've also developed an app that adds some functionality to Confluence actions.Here you can find all the different apps related to this topic: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=task&product=confluence
