Activity Table's Timeline doesn't show the same options as a standard table?

Trying to understand Timeline's better within a model driven app.

Question 1: Why is an activity table not showing the same Timeline options?

Visual of my Task form with a Timeline and it's only showing the Note and since I've turned on OneNote integration, that.

In the below screen capture, you can see that the only record type available to show are Notes

On the contact form, based on a Standard table type, there are a whole bunch more options.

Now, I can see the options to initiate an Email, phone call, appointment from the grid view prior to opening a specific record but....

those options don't appear once you click into the specific record.

    Hi @damian_green23 ,

     

    Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to turn on 'enable Activities' for activity tables because this setting is grayed out for activity tables.

    There is a similar post.

    Maybe we can create a middleware table (standard table) to associate with the task table.

     

    Hope it helps.

     

    Best Regards,
