# action.signout

Ends the current session and signs the person out

Component: [`<Action>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/action.md) · Renders: `<button>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md)

## Example

```tsx
<Action intent="action.signout" onClick={signoutItem} current={isCurrent}>Signout</Action>
```

Code that says `signout`, `logout` points here. `prongs check` warns when an element with this intent has a handler or label that points somewhere else.

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| Ends the current session and signs the person out | `action.signout` (this page) |
| Going to the sign-in page | [`action.navigate`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/action/navigate.md) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

- Built from: [`control.quiet`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#control-quiet)

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.

How action.signout resolves, and its definition
