# Actor

An Actor represents a channel-specific identity for a Persona. For example, a single user Persona may have separate Actors for Sandbox chat, WhatsApp, and phone — each tied to a specific integration and connector. Actor actions let you create, retrieve, and inspect actors and their associated acts (events).

### Available Actions

| **Action**                                                               | **Description**                                                            |
