Contentstack Management - Content Types Actions

A Content Type serves as the framework or blueprint for a page or section within your web or mobile platform. It allows you to establish the fundamental structure of this blueprint by incorporating fields and configuring their attributes. By using the Contentstack Management Content Types action, you can fetch all content types from a selected stack.

Let’s look at the action in detail.
