The following table shows the locations, custom action group IDs, and custom action IDs that are used in the CustomAction element and the CustomActionGroup element of custom actions that are installed by default in Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.

In the table, each location value corresponds to the Location attribute of the CustomAction element. Each group ID corresponds to the GroupId attribute of the CustomAction element or to the Id attribute of the CustomActionGroup element. Each custom action ID corresponds to the Id attribute of the CustomAction element.
