# Configuring thinklets

A thinklet is the main action component within a workflow and has different configuration options depending on its type. Thinklets allow you to perform specific tasks or integrate with external systems.

Configure thinklets to execute remote actions, launch campaigns, or interact with Service/APIs:

* [Campaign thinklet](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/creating-workflows/configuring-thinklets/campaign-thinklet)
* [Remote action thinklet](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/creating-workflows/configuring-thinklets/remote-action-thinklet)
* [Service/API thinklet](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/creating-workflows/configuring-thinklets/service-api-thinklet)
* [Message thinklet](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/creating-workflows/configuring-thinklets/message-thinklet)
* [Function thinklet](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/creating-workflows/configuring-thinklets/function-thinklet)
